Magic of the Force
By: Tellemicus Sundance
Skywalker Citadel
1987-2001
Lucius Malfoy manages to get the Death Eaters and sympathizers in the Ministry of Magic to institute a New Order (education + heritage = social rank). A new order that was easily accepted during the times of war and terrorism that Voldemort inadvertently helped bring into and solidify as part of society.
Voldemort tries to kill Harry, but gets disintegrated instead. Harry is brought to the Dursleys to be raised under Petunia's blood protection.
2005
Lucius unleashed the diary Horcrux upon the school in an effort to 'test' how his New Order is progressing. The student the Horcrux was given is killed when the diary consumes his life force. The basilisk runs amok through Hogwarts, killing over twenty students (mostly Hufflepuffs) before it's finally killed by a coordinated attack by the professors. Young Voldemort sneaks out of Hogwarts during the fight and goes in search of his older self. Finding his ghostly future self, Young Voldemort seals him into a Horcrux and takes the full name of Lord Voldemort for himself once again. Voldemort goes on an odyssey across the world (not just Europe, Africa, and the Middle East as Voldemort-Sr. had done before him), exploring, researching, and learning many of the ancient Dark Arts.
Barty Crouch Jr. escapes his father's Imperius Curse and kills him. He breaks open Azkaban and frees many of the imprisoned Death Eaters. They band together to form a band of terrorists who regularly target Muggleborns and Mudbloods (completely disregarding the New Order). They become known as the Death Eater 'Remnants' and are widely considered as Enemies of the State.
2008-2011
Inspired by the movies and series, using sourcebooks for additional info, Harry (age 8) begins training to use his strange powers like the Force so he could become a Jedi. When Hogwarts tries to recruit him (age 11), he declines since he wasn't interested in learning their archaic magic. But he was interested in learning the history of the Wizarding World and his family's background. The Ministry and Dumbledore hoped to use this to trick Harry into changing his mind. Dumbledore has Remus Lupin assigned as Harry's personal tutor.
Seeing Harry's unique training and hearing of the name 'Skywalker,' Remus takes Harry to California and gets him accepted into the Jedi Order and enrolled on their Skywalker Citadel. After passing his Initiate Trials in record speed thanks to his self-training, he gets chosen as the Padawan of the Jedi Knight Grace Backus (Jedi Guardian, age 28) and becomes her 'little helper' in her day job as a zookeeper and martial arts instructor.
Remus also gets a job as a librarian, keeping in close contact with Harry and sending regular updates on Harry's physical, mental, and emotional health to Dumbledore but never truly going in-depth to the 'magic' that Harry is learning (since he doesn't fully comprehend it himself).
At Hogwarts, Hermione is badly injured during the troll attack and she withdraws deeply into her books, much to Ron's great relief of losing the arrogant know-it-all in class. Sirius escapes Azkaban to look for Harry. Wormtail panics and flees the Weasleys to find a new family to leech off of.
2012
Sirius finally finds Harry, but gets captured when Grace senses his erratic mental state and splintered aura. She takes him to the Jedi Healers who manage to gently coax his mind back together and begin the long process of healing his tortured body. Once he's fluent enough, he explains to the High Council what had happened to him, his lack of a trial, and his honest desire to help and protect Harry, with a side-note of wanting to hunt down and kill Peter for his betrayal. The High Council decides to allow Sirius safe haven in their society so long as he does not hamper Harry's training. He begins spending much time with Harry, trying to make up for eleven years of absence. Through his time with Harry, Sirius begins a tentative relationship with Grace, first as friends and mentors to Harry, but steadily becoming more and more romantic.
Once he's brought up-to-speed on the Jedi and watched the films that the Grandmaster had produced as a means of promoting the Jedi Way, Sirius decides to put his money into use, purchasing a factory and beginning experiments to fuse technology with magic in an effort to mimic some of the technologies shown in the films. He quickly hires Remus and uses him to get into contact with the Werewolves of Europe, hiring many of them to help him with his experiments and to run the factory.
2014
When the Triwizard Tournament is about to be hosted, many of the British Wizards insisted and demanded that Harry Potter take part in it some way. Thus, with great anticipation, Fudge and Dumbledore send a representative to Skywalker Citadel to bring Harry back to Europe for the duration of the Tournament. Despite the representative's pompous attitude and superiority complex over the 'cult' that Harry had joined, Harry decides that it would be nice to see Britain again. With Grace and Sirius (disguised as Padfoot) accompanying, he returns to England in time to watch the Quidditch World Finals. But he and Grace leave immediate afterwards because they had no reason to stay, and thus miss the Remnant attack on the after-party.
Journeying up to Hogwarts, Harry is given a brief tour while Dumbledore speaks with Grace, hoping to learn just what Harry has been learning from her. However, his attention was soon drawn to the nexus of Dark Side energies that were emanating from the Forbidden Forest. That night, he, Grace, and Padfoot enter the woods and are quickly met by the Centaurs. After a bit of discussion, Harry and Grace learn that the Centaurs are more or less prisoners of the Forest, held captive by the oppressive Ministry of Magic. They make solemn oaths to free the Centaurs from the Ministry since they don't deserve to be treated like mindless monsters.
Grace contacts the High Council and explains the situation to them. After a bit of deliberation, the Council decides that they could purchase an expanse of land in the High Plains for the Centaurs to have should they decide to leave Britain. It was a tough choice for the Centaurs since they're ingrained hatred and mistrust of Wizards bled over to all Humans and their pride forbade them from accepting help from Humans. But in the end, Firenze and Harry were both able to convince the Elders that it was for the best to leave since it was obvious that the Centaurs were slowly going mad from being cooped up in the Forest for centuries on end. With a bit of help from a nearby Jedi-owned cargo freighter, the Centaurs left the Forest and fled for America.
The Ministry never realizing just what had happened until a month later when the 'check-up team' found their village abandoned. Though the Ministry scrambled to locate and control the missing herd, they were never found, much to the Ministry's confusion and mounting fear. It was only a few days later that the Ministry discovered that half of the Werewolf population had also disappeared with no warning. The Ministry started scrambling, trying to see if somehow the Werewolves and/or the Centaurs had managed to get ahold of Portkeys or international transportation out of Great Britain. When yet again they couldn't find anything (even when actively looking for potential payoffs, and accidentally exposing a few unanticipated ones among the Wizarding community), they started to wonder if they used Muggle transportation, which was utterly impossible since they'd expose themselves and the Magical World for sure and have been caught immediately. Some of the 'secret' Dark Wizards suspected that Harry Potter and his 'Jid-Dya' were responsible for the disappearances and that Harry was secretly building an army of Magical Creatures to conquer the world. However, many in the Ministry presumed that the Jid-Dya were just poor, mystical cult with no political structure or government influence, so they ignored the possibility of Harry being responsible.
As the First Task of the Tournament was getting started, Harry and Grace made their presences known, greeting and meeting with several families and officials of the different nations and Ministries that were attending it also. Though it was marginally interesting and impressive in its own right, Harry found the twisted and brutish ways of using magic/Force from the Hogwarts and Durmstrang Champions to be very uncomfortable and invasive. However, it was the Beauxbatons Champion that really drew his attention. Not because of her Allure or her beauty (both of which were still very attractive incentives), but it was her brilliant aura that commanded his attention and her way of dealing with her dragon challenge without harming it that really spoke to him since it was the closest mimicry of Jedi Philosophy that he'd come across since arriving in Europe again. He quickly introduced himself after the Task and made frequent visits, wanting to discuss her unique 'magic' and why she did what she did. Fleur just saw him as a little boy, ignorant to the ways of magic. Though, to his credit, he seemed immune to her Veela Allure, so she did somewhat enjoy their talks on the principles and differences between her magic and his 'force' powers.
As the Yule Ball drew near, Harry decided he wanted to attend and just have fun like other kids his age. Since Grace and Sirius wanted to have their own little private time, they easily agreed with his request and became making plans themselves for a little date. Harry then approached the different Headmasters and inquired on whether or not he (not a student) could attend the Ball. Though the Durmstrang Headmaster was against it on principle, the Beauxbatons Headmistress was willing to bend the rules and Dumbledore was all-too-eager to have Harry attend, thus he was granted permission on a 2-1 vote. After the Opening Dance and early into the night, he was able to approach Fleur and get a few dances with her after he noticed that her own date was starting to get very invasive of her personal space as he fell deeper under the sway of her Allure (unintentionally on both their parts). However, the Remnants decided that it was too good a target to pass up and broke into the Yule Ball, terrorizing and torturing the unarmed students and professors. But their terrorism was cut short thanks to Harry's fast retaliation, even without the use of his lightsaber. His obvious courage and ability quickly changed Fleur's perception about him and she happily decides to make him a friend, and later lover.
2015
Following the Yule Ball and subsequent arrest of five Death Eaters by Harry's intervention, all eyes fall upon him, his 'master,' and the Jid-Dya. Reporters constantly hound Harry, trying to squeeze details of his life and training out of him. Ministry officials continuously speak and/or threaten Grace about information on the 'cult' that she and Harry are part of, but she angrily refuses any information beyond the standard due to their arrogant superiority complex over all 'obscure branches of magic' and their offensive manner in 'asking' questions from her like they were entitled to the information.
The Remnants decide to send some of their members directly to the US to find the cult's headquarters and steal whatever information they could, most especially their weaknesses and numbers. Sadly, the Remnant is entirely unable to find anything on the Jid-Dya because they were searching for secret magical charms and artifacts, not looking in broad daylight of the Muggle World where the Jedi hid in plain sight. However, they did come across some kind of strange factory that several of the Remnants recognized a few of the workers as being Werewolves who'd used to live in Britain. They realized that their assumptions about Harry forming his own 'Dark Army' were quite true and rushed home to warning their partners and start ruining Harry's good name.
By the end of the Tournament, Harry had become more than fed up with the intrusive reporters and the Ministries' constant inquiries. He, Grace, and Sirius were all-too-eager to rush back to lives in America and once again resume their lives and daily rituals. Before he left, Harry made a promise to keep in contact with Fleur and even hinted to her where she could find him (WolfTech Industries).
After she graduated from Beauxbatons, Fleur was immediately approached by the French Ministry of Magic to take the job of being their liaison to the US, specifically the Jid-Dya cult. Although she knew they were merely using her relationship with Harry as a means of finally getting the desired information, Fleur decided to accept the job. In less than a month, she was in the US and located the WolfTech's main headquarters. Inside, she found herself face-to-face with Sirius Black and Remus Lupin. After calming her down from her initial panic attack, Remus directed her towards where she could find the Jedi Order itself.
Finding the fabled Skywalker Citadel, Fleur was taken before the High Council and met with the legendary Grandmaster himself. Despite their reservations of 'exposing themselves' to the archaic European International Confederacy of Wizards, they realized that it was simply inevitable that they'd come to their attentions. They dispatched several Knights and Masters to the various Ministries to meet with and calm them down. Thanks to this, the Jedi Order was finally introduced to the ICW and was confirmed as a legitimate government and society due to their clearly detailed social ranks. They even supplied them with the basic histories of the Order. However, several Ministries took offence from the perceived insults that Jedi made, causing negotiations to quickly break down and the Jedi forced into permanent exile from the Ministries' lands under threat of imprisonment, torture, and execution.
Fleur, meanwhile, was finally directed to where she could find Harry, drilling with his Master on a set of highly-advanced lightsaber forms.
At WolfTech Industries, a breakthrough on the superconductor occurs and the engineers immediately begin mass-producing it and building the first prototypes of various repulsorlift vehicles (swoopbikes, speeders, troop transports, and even spaceships). Grace and Sirius get married after discovering Grace had gotten pregnant.
After studying abroad, Voldemort (now the Sith Apprentice Delamort) finally returns to England to check up on his old self's followers and see how they're handling themselves. What he finds is that his minions have done an exceptional job of reforming the Wizarding World in his absence, although he dislikes the emphasis of promotion through education. But he follows his Sith Master's orders (Darth Bludvist, vampire) and approaches the last remaining Werewolf Pack in Britain and gains Fenrir's loyalty and command of his Pack. He begins sending them on terrorist attacks meant to harm the Wizarding community and strike terror into the populace, while Delamort and Bludvist start assassinating key political figures.
The Werewolves also start abducting children and young teenagers, bringing them to Azkaban (which the Sith had unknowingly commandeered from the Ministry) and started reeducating and training them to be Terror Troopers and elite 'Saber Guards', loyal only to Bludvist and Delamort.
2016
Receiving an order to return back to France (or within Europe's borders) or be labeled a felon for supporting the Jedi scum, Fleur is reluctant to leave but quickly obeys the summons. However, the threat of imprisonment didn't deter Harry from following his friend back to England and helping get settled into a new home with a job as a supermodel. At the same time, Grace and Sirius interrupt their honeymoon to go on a business trip to expand WolfTech into Europe, starting in Italy, Spain, France, Germany, and Britain. Italy, Spain, and Britain all agree to sponsor and host new WolfTech factories and home-stores.
Due to the increasing attacks by the Werewolves, the new Minister of Magic (Ladon Greengrass) is forced to take more and more emergency power to help speed the process of the Ministry's forces to prevent and locate the Pack. The Auror recruitment is at an all-time high. Minister Greengrass issues increasingly more severe laws against all Magical Creatures in hopes of preventing them from being inspired to join the Pack. Aurors quickly start arresting many Werewolves, then Dark Creatures, and then all Magical Creatures on suspicions of treason and send them to labor concentration camps. These camps quickly become death traps, though that's strictly hidden from the public since the official purpose of them is to keep a better watch on the captives to prevent them from joining the growing Dark Army. But all the camps do is drive the MC into the Dark Army's hands wholeheartedly.
As the Sirius and Grace were visiting Britain and meeting with Harry, they got caught in an unexpected attack by a squad of Terror Troopers and two Sith Lords. Sirius was knocked out briefly, Harry injured, and Grace was killed. Harry would've quickly been killed as well, but Sirius was able to come to and save his life. Harry reports the attack and the Sith Lords presences in Britain to the High Council, but ignores the Council's order to return to the Citadel. He feels that despite Grace and Sirius's presences, he had actually been the target of the attack and he made solemn vow to stop their machinations since they'd made it personal. Despite also desiring vengeance, Sirius is forced to return to America in order to get his son (James Remus Black) to safety and to get WolfTech researching and mass-producing high-end military weaponry and equipment that could effectively handle magic attacks. Hearing of the tragic death of the reclusive WolfTech CEO's wife during a random terrorist attack, Fleur quickly rushes to Harry and resolutely declares that he's not going to war without her watching his back.
Harry and Fleur set up a mercenary business between Britain and Ireland (using and advertising state-of-the-art WolfTech equipment like the Luxury Yacht, inspired by the Sorosuub 3000). They began working against the Ministry's efforts of hunting and imprisoning the MC. They'd find and free them, sometimes helping them recover from wounds, feeding and sheltering them, and (if they were willing) smuggling them out of the UK and to America. These actions quickly brought them to the Aurors' attentions, who tried to arrest them and labeled them as Undesirables with waiting cells in Azkaban, though they escaped.
Around the same time, Delamort approached the Remnants and summoned the other free Death Eaters to get their loyalty to his cause. Despite claiming he was Voldemort's 'son', he did not receive the same amount of loyalty from his minions as his older self since he was still a 'child' in their eyes, incredible power notwithstanding. The New Order had brought about an unexpected boon in progress for the Purebloods (and heightened levels of wealth and prestige) so many of the former Death Eaters were much more hesitant to unquestionably slaughter such good breeding stock. Many of the DE who didn't wish to disturb the present status quo merely decided that they'd not help nor hinder 'Delamort's efforts to claim the UK for the Purebloods. Only the most insane and bloodthirsty of them swore loyalty to him.
With only a handful of his old followers beside him, he took them to meet his Sith Master. The DE were disgusted that the son of Voldemort would submit to being the apprentice of a worthless bloodsucker. However, Darth Bludvist quickly displayed his power and strength by killing five them without even leaving his throne and allowing them to attack first. Beaten and submissive, Bludvist had them swear their loyalty and dismissed them. Once alone, Delamort revealed his true, treacherous plans to them and instantly earned their total loyalty and devotion.
The Ministry sets a trap for Harry, Fleur, and his new crew (including Gabrielle, Harry's unofficial apprentice since her parents went missing back in February). But they still manage to escape and achieve their objective of freeing the captive Creatures. As they're returning to their yacht, they find themselves with an unexpected visitor (Dumbledore).
2017
Dumbledore more or less bullies Harry into joining his Order of the Phoenix since that way they could coordinate their efforts more efficiently. Harry journeys with him to the Burrow (Order's HQ), meeting the Weasleys and several prominent members of the Order. Arguments quickly get started as Harry wants to take more decisive action to protect the MC while Dumbledore wants to keep things contained to prevent escalation into all-out war and violence while he's busy hunting down the last of the Horcruxes. Despite Dumbledore lying down the law, Harry approaches various members and gets their support. They start secretly coordinating and gathering intelligence.
By a deduction of logic based on the Dark Army's past attacks, Harry realizes that there are two highly tempting targets that have remained untouched yet: Hogwarts and the Ministry itself. He coaxes Tonks and Moody into 'capturing' him and bringing him to the Ministry for trial. While he's waiting that trial, the Ministry is suddenly attacked by the Dark Army and the two Sith Lords. He frees himself during the confusion and rushes to face the Lords by himself. Though he could take anything Delamort threw at him, Bludvist easily outclassed him, nearly killing him from a blast of Sith Lightning. Without Moody's timely arrival and taking him back to the Burrow, Harry would've been killed.
When he awakens from his healing trance several days later, he finds another unexpected guest waiting for him: Jedi Grandmaster George Lucas himself. Lucas reveals that he'd had a vision of a castle in flames with the Sith Lords standing triumphant over many corpses if he'd remained back at the Citadel. Upon learning that Bludvist was the Sith Master, George explains that Bludvist was the longest surviving Sith Lord of the past 500 years and a personal nemesis of his.
Realizing that there was still one target left untouched, the Phoenix Order and the Jedi crew race to Hogwarts to help reinforce its defenses. Dumbledore is deeply concerned when he learns of the probability of an attack, equally so when he uses Legilimency on Lucas (with his permission) to see the vision itself and recognizes the castle was indeed Hogwarts. He quickly sends a message to the Ministry about the likely attack and requests some Auror protection, but the Ministry is very reluctant to abide the request since they doubt that the Dark Army would stoop to such a low as to attack a school of children. But they do send a token force of ten Aurors on the off-chance.
The attack comes from an unexpected source: the Hogwarts Express, crashed into the station and unleashing a horde of transformed Werewolves, vampires, trolls, Dementors, and giants. Though the wards were able to hold off the Army for a short while, they also attacked and utterly destroyed Hogsmeade. As Delamort was tearing down the wards, Lucas and Bludvist fought just outside the wards in a Duel of the Fates. However, it was ultimately for naught as Delamort brought the wards down and unleashed the horde onto Hogwarts. If not for the unexpected reinforcements of WolfTech's Army (Centaurs and Lycans, 'cured werewolves') that managed to arrive in LAAT/I's just in time, the castle would've been soon overrun. The new army caught the Dark by surprise and pushed them back outside of the ward-line where a stalemate was started. And fighting right in the center of no-man's-land was George and Harry against Bludvist and Delamort. George was able to finally land a decisive and crippling blow on Bludvist when he was forced into Oneness with the Force, but the Oneness left him exhausted and near-death. Harry broke off his fight to rush George back to the safety of Hogwarts while Delamort took the opportunity to slay his weakened Master and finally claimed the title of Darth for himself.
Letting his Army rest and recuperate, Delamort gave Harry an ultimatum: come out and fight for the survival of all inside Hogwarts in one hour's time, or the Army will attack and overrun the castle with no survivors. With no choice left, Harry submits to the demand, even against Fleur's frantic begging for him to stay and help with the evacuation. He faces Delamort, surrounded by his Army, in a death match. After a short, savage fight, Harry manages to cut off Delamort's saber hand and forces him to resort to his wand, driving him into a bloodthirsty frenzy. But one reflected Killing Curse ends Delamort permanently. Before the Dark Army has a chance to lash out against Harry for killing their master, the WolfTech Army emerges from its flanking maneuver and surrounds them, forcing the smarter ones to surrender while the rest flees into the Forbidden Forest.
As WolfTech begins organizing their captives, the Ministry and the Aurors finally arrive to save the day, only to find the battle over and the war ended. However, they misinterpret the situation and start attacking the WolfTech soldiers, incurring a lot of early causalities. Rather than deal with the self-righteous and presumptuous bigots of the Ministry, WolfTech and the Jedi crew retreat back to their LAAT/Is and depart, leaving the prisoners to the Ministry to deal with. The Ministry is quite dumbfounded to learn the truths of what had actually happened and that they'd erroneously attacked, killed, and driven off their saviors. But upon learning that a majority of the WolfTech were in fact Lycans and Centaurs, they pompously announced that they'd actually saved the school from another invading army that would've doubtlessly used the students as captives. No one in Hogwarts believed that, and the Ministry lost a lot of future support from the students that day (Muggleborn, Halfblood, and Pureblood alike).
While Magical Britain reels and convulses from the events, the Jedi Army return to America. Lucas proudly Knights Harry at the Citadel. The WolfTech sells its weaponry products to various militaries and deepens its research into space travel technologies. Harry marries Fleur and is named the godfather of Sirius's son. Harry also takes Gabrielle Delacour as his full and official apprentice.
And so, life carried on…
BACKGROUND INFO:
It originated as a sect of Hindu monks and Bushido samurai from China and Japan before immigrating to the US in the early 1400s where they met and incorporated several of the mystic ideals of the Western Native Americans, forming the foundations of the Jedi Order. Unlike the Wizards, the Jedi had already revealed themselves to the world at large thanks to their current-Grandmaster's brilliant idea of crafting a series of science-fiction films and comics/books based on the Order's principles and certain legendary Knights and Masters and conflicts with Dark Siders and Sith Lords from centuries past.
The lightsaber was a revolutionary upgrade from the ancient Force-swords and weaponry the Jedi had been using. It was first created in the 1880s, but it was bulky and highly cumbersome. The design would be constantly refined and advanced as technology progressed and the Jedi's understanding of the weapon grew. The modern variation requires a perfect fusion of 'magic' and technology to operate properly and not explode in the user's face/hand.
Jedi and Wizards use fundamentally different variations of magic/the Force.
Wizards draw in the raw power that resonates around them, and then warp/twist/shape and direct the energy out through their wands to enact their wills upon the environment. They require constant use of their emotions and passion to fuel their link to the environment energies (essentially, they use the Dark Side). And the Wizards also have developed the highly-arrogant presumption that their magic comes from themselves and their 'core', not drawn in from the environment. They view magic as a tool, a beast of burden that must obey their every desire.
Jedi learn to make peace with the environment and use its powers as needed. Unlike Wizards, the Jedi don't try to shape or control the Force. Thus, they view the Wizards' use of magic as corruptive and dangerous, to both the user and the environment.
Due to these extreme differences, a person can only be trained in one form of magic. A Jedi cannot be taught to be a Wizard, and a Wizard would never submit to the Jedi's philosophy. To do so would force the person to have to completely forget and/or ignore their trained instincts and start learning everything they've ever known from scratch. A process that could take decades to master. But, ultimately, is the switch really worth it in the end? Most Jedi/Wizards don't think so.
Thus, in many ways, the Jedi and Wizards will always have bad relations while the Sith and Dark Jedi will thrive in the environments and societies that the Wizards have erected around themselves.
