MADAM UMBRIDGE APPOINTED HOGWARTS HIGH INQUISITOR
In a move that has sparked interest, the Ministry of Magic has announced the appointment of Senior Undersecretary Dolores Jane Umbridge as Hogwarts High Inquisitor. This unprecedented role, authorized under Educational Decree Number Twenty-Three, grants Madam Umbridge sweeping new powers to inspect, regulate, and reform Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
The decision, issued by Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge, follows what the Ministry describes as "mounting concerns over the educational standards and discipline at Hogwarts." In a formal statement, Fudge assured the public that-
The article greeted them all on the front of the Daily Prophet as they all sat down at breakfast to begin the day. It was followed by a slew of so-called educational decrees giving Umbridge an insane amount of power within the school.
Just what is she planning? Harry wondered as he read the paper, seeing that Umbridge was supposedly upping her game. He hadn't fallen for her taunts or traps for weeks at this point, and she seemed oddly desperate if this was her move.
He was already aware that Umbridge knew, or at least suspected, their DA meetings. Everyone knew that Seamus had fallen under the curse when he tried to tell her, and Harry could only conclude that her new position as High Inquisitor was a result of this. It meant that Umbridge had likely sought out this new position of power with the goal of rooting out and shutting down their defense group.
"Hem, hem!" The ugly noise came from the front of the Great Hall, and everyone turned to see Umbridge standing front and center with an ugly smile on her face. "Good morning, students."
Nobody said anything, and the woman only seemed to get more smug. "That was rude, when I say good morning all of you should reply in turn. Now, let us try that again. Good morning, students."
"Good morning, Professor Umbridge." The Great Hall droned back in reply, sounding like a funeral choir.
"Wonderful!" Despite their lack of enthusiasm, Umbridge didn't seem the least bit perturbed. "Now, if I may have your attention, a couple announcements have to be been made. First, I would like to notify everyone that your school's new Defense Professor, and former Senior Undersecretary to the Minister of Magic, has been promoted to the prestigious post of High Inquisitor!"
The woman beamed, and the rest of the hall just glared back at her. Harry genuinely had to wonder how a woman could possibly be such a narcissistic piece of dragon-dung, and he certainly wasn't the only one having such thoughts.
"Secondly, after some well-thought-out discussions within the Ministry, it had been decided that all of your classes, as well as instructors, will need to be reviewed. From this point forwards, your Professors, as well as their course material, will be examined and changed as needed."
The staff table behind Umbridge was already filled with a varied mix of distasteful expressions, but the woman's announcement only seemed to make each Professor that much more irritated. McGonagall gained an even more sour look than when Umbridge started talking, with Professor Sprout looking like she lost her appetite. Snape looked like he was drilling holes into the back of the woman's head with his glare, and even the gorgeous Professor Sinistra looked sickened.
"And thirdly," Umbridge's expression conveyed her cruel amusement. "as of right now all student clubs, organizations, and teams will be disbanded. This will include academic pursuits as well as quidditch-"
Harry didn't hear what the woman said from that point onwards as the whole hall seemed to erupt in protest. Quidditch had been one of the few activities the whole student body seemed to enjoy, and to take that away was just cruel. She just made an enemy out of the whole school.
Already a huge chunk of the school looked outright mutinous, with Angelina and the Weasley twins leading a vocal portion of the outraged Gryffindor table. The Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw tables were little different, and Harry wished he could see across the hall to view the Slytherin table's reaction.
Umbridge suddenly pulled out her wand and used a spell to make a loud bang with it. The room quieted down then, yet everyone continued to glare at the woman with renewed hatred.
"In addition," Umbridge's gaze swept the room. "Members of your peers who have met certain standards will now be joining the newly formed inquisitor squad. They have already been selected, and represent the best and brightest amongst you."
Nearly a dozen Slytherin students stood up then, Malfoy and Pansy included, and made their way up to the front of the hall. Umbridge probably viewed this as a way to intimidate them all into compliance, but she had clearly underestimated their will based on how everyone was glaring at the new Inquisitor Squad. There was no doubt in his mind that Fred and George would be busy pranking them all soon.
Nonetheless, Harry made sure to memorize all of their faces, seeing Umbridge's lackeys out in the open for the first time. He already knew the woman had created a secret network of allies within the school population, with Seamus being one of them, but now part of it was out in the open. It meant that Umbridge truly was desperate to take control of the school, and thanks to Pansy being on the Inquisitor Squad, he would now know her next moves. It seems that Umbridge has played her hand.
"And finally," Umbridge continued. "Student gatherings of more than three or more students are now prohibited unless expressly permitted. Those students caught breaking this rule will be appropriately punished."
So this was her plan. He realized that Umbridge was trying to gain as much power and leverage over the student body as possible in order to weed out the DA. With student clubs and organizations no longer allowed, their club couldn't function without breaking at least some rules and attracting attention. This, in conjunction with the student gatherings of more than three people being banned, made it even more easy for Umbridge to find them.
We'll need to put a stop to the DA meetings for now. Harry mentally decided. Without student clubs existing, so many people meeting up in sync after class hours would be suspicious, and the Inquisitor Squad would easily be able to find them.
Soon everyone was dismissed from the Great Hall, and he realized that he needed to talk with some of the other DA members in secret. But they would need to meet somewhere that Umbridge or the Inquisitor Squad couldn't locate. But where?
The Chamber of Secrets.
As everyone began to leave the Great Hall to start the day, he maneuvered behind Daphne and Tracey as they too made their way out of the Great Hall. He walked up right behind his girlfriend before getting her attention.
"Daphne, get Susan." He told her, and continued before she could say anything. "And meet me in the second floor girl's bathroom."
"We're here." Daphne walked in to the bathroom with Tracey in tow, all the while Harry paced anxiously. "Susan will get here soon-"
Right then the door opened again, and Susan walked in with Cho and Astoria right behind her.
"I figured this was about the DA, so I brought them too." Susan said before anyone could say anything, gesturing at Astoria and Cho.
"It's risky for us to have this many people here." Daphne frowned. "Just me, Tracey, and Harry is enough, otherwise Umbridge will give us detention if she happens to find us. Not that she wouldn't anyways."
"It's fine." Harry dismissed her concerns. "I'll make this quick, we're going-"
Right then the door flung open, and Harry nearly pulled out his wand before he realized who was standing there. The Carrow twins, Hestia and Flora, ran into the bathroom looking worried and out of breath. "Umbridge is coming!"
"What?"
"Nott heard you talking to Greengrass and Davis in the Great Hall, and went and told Umbridge. After that she gathered the Inquisitor squad and she's on her way here now!" Hestia said.
Shit! He chastised himself for not being more careful, and realized that there wouldn't be time for all of them to escape without Umbridge finding at least some of them. The only choice is for us to hide in the Chamber.
Harry spun to face the sink then, ignoring the rest of the room. "Open."
He could see the girls jump in fright out of the corner of his eye, and realized that this was the second time he had used parseltongue in front of them all. Soon they recovered, and everyone was then staring at the secret entrance that the sinks dissapeared in order to reveal.
"Everybody inside. Hurry!" He barked.
He had to give them all credit, as the seven witches barely hesitated before jumping down the tunnel that led down to the Chamber. It showed just how much faith they all had in him that they didn't even hesitate before sliding down the filthy tunnel. Harry followed after them all, and the Chamber entrance closed itself on its own right behind him.
He slid all the way down the tunnel and arrived at the end where everyone else was. The sight that greeted him in the large open cavern was exactly what he expected, as all of the girls were fussing and complaining over how dirty they were, each using spells to clean their outfits and hair.
"Where are we, Potter?" Flora almost demanded, looking around at the cavern they were in. All the while her sister stood attentively at her side with a wand-lighting charm.
"This cave leads to the Chamber of Secrets." He answered, and the whole cavern seemed to go silent for a moment.
"T-The Chamber of Secrets?" Tracey asked in fright.
"You mean it's real?"
"Like, the whole thing from second year wasn't a hoax?"
He ignored their questions and started walked towards the Chamber entrance, moving past rocks and stalagmites as all the girls cautiously followed. "I found the Chamber in my second year."
"You know that wizards have been searching for Slytherin's chamber for centuries, Harry?" Daphne eyed him with a wicked edge to her gaze.
"Nevermind that, how did you even find it in the first place?" Tracey asked.
"Mostly luck, if I'm being honest." He answered. "I had a lot of help, and was able to figure out that the monster inside it had killed moaning Myrtle back in the forties in the second floor girls bath. After figuring that out, I found my way down here and killed it."
They reached the entrance to the Chamber itself then, and Harry once again used parseltongue to get inside. "Open."
"It always makes me shiver when you do that." Cho said as they all watched the cool serpentine door open. "What even was the monster anyways?"
As if to answer her question, the entrance door opened on its own to reveal the inside of Slytherin's chamber. The girls around him screamed in fright at what they saw inside, while Harry just felt amused by their reactions.
"Y-You killed that in your second year?" Astoria asked in horror, staring at the carcass of the huge basilisk.
"Slytherin's monster is a giant snake? Who could've guessed." Tracey joked, but even she stared enraptured at the sight of the dead snake.
"It's a basilisk." Flora said as she entered the chamber, looking over the carcass of the huge snake. Her gaze went to him, and he saw the slightly fanatical look Daphne sometimes gave him in her own gaze. "How did you even manage to kill it?"
"I used a sword." He answered calmly.
Thatseemed to cause the most shock amongst the group. Most of the girls simply stared at him in silent shock, others gaping and unable to even form words. Harry knew that most boys in the castle could only dream of getting such reactions from girls.
"This place is so cool!" Astoria exclaimed excitedly, looking at the giant statue of Salazar Slytherin. "We've got to explore it!"
Who knew the Chamber of Secrets was such a great place to pick up witches? He thought with some amusement as the girls began spreading out on their own.
The group of them all went their separate ways to explore the Chamber then, and Harry ended up wandering deeper into the chamber to the parts he had yet to see. He walked around the large statue of Salazar Slytherin and to the side, where another serpentine statue resided on its own.
It looked no different from the rest, its maw open and fangs exposed as if it was moving to strike. But for some reason it was like the chamber was calling out to him, whispering for him to investigate the statue and discover its secrets.
"Open." He hissed, and nothing happened. Harry glared at the statue, wondering if this place was making him go insane, before he tried something else. "Show me your secrets."
The snake statue moved, its jaws slamming shut before withdrawing backwards into the wall. A doorway replaced it, revealing a set of steps that went even further down to below the chamber. Harry hesitated for only a moment before following them down, holding up his wand cautiously as he descended into the depths of Slytherin's chamber into another separate cavern.
Clearly Slytherin's chamber was built in a large underground cave, with the part he was in being connected to the main chamber. This part was stacked floor-to-ceiling with books, scattered throughout the room on either ancient wooden bookshelves or ones made of stone. Tables and workstations littered the room throughout, many of which covered in cobwebs and grime.
Slytherin must have used this room. He mentally thought, looking at an ancient workstation in the corner of the room, covered with vials and all sorts of strange ingredients.
"You're really something special, Harry." Said a voice from behind him then, breaking him out of his thoughts.
Harry turned, and saw a certain Asian Ravenclaw eyeing him. "Cho? What-"
"It's amazing that you found both Slytherin's chamber and this place." She moved forward and knelt before him, making eye contact with him as she began undoing his belt and pulling down his trousers. He could see that certain gleamin her eye, the one that spoke of worship that Pansy always seemed to have. "That basilisk up there could have killed me, you know."
A year ago he could only dream about being in this situation. He did dream about this situation. But now it was almost normal for this to happen, even if it was the Asian Ravenclaw he had crushed on for years who was about to give him a blowjob.
His big cock sprung forward, thick and massive, and Cho gasped. It was a reaction he relished, enjoying how every girl he fucked was blown away by his size.
"Shit, Harry…" Cho eyes were wide as she grasped his penis delicately, watching as it only twitched and grew at her touch. "It's fucking massive."
He snorted, and her gaze met his before she guided the head of his shaft into her mouth. He expected her to be delicate, to take her time and lollipop his cockhead as was normal, only for Cho to try and cram his entire shaft down her throat.
The Asian Ravenclaw gagged on his cock, and his eyes went wide at the unexpected move. Cho didn't give up, didn't even pull back, as she instead kept going. More and more of his cock was fed into her mouth, his big cockhead brutally shoving its way down her throat. All the while her cute eyes looked up at him, taking note of his own pleasure.
A hand suddenly grasped the back of her head, brutally pushing Cho forward until her lips made contact with the base of his cock and his groin. Harry moaned as his entire shaft was then shoved down Cho's throat.
"I leave you alone for only a moment and here you are, sucking my boyfriend's cock." Daphne said down to Cho, pulling her head back by her hair before shoving her forward. "You slut!"
It seemed the other girls had found them, as he looked over to see them all watching the erotic scene. Hestia and Flora watched with wide eyes, seemingly unable to look away from where Cho's lips stretched around his girth. Astoria and Susan stared as well, hot and flustered expressions on her their faces as they kept glancing at the scene before quickly looking away.
How did my life come to this? Harry wondered, looking down at Cho as Daphne guided her head up and down his cock. It was like he was living in some strange erotic dream, one where getting deepthroated by Cho Chang with the help of Daphne Greengrass was nothing special. No dream could be this good…
He could feel every vein in his shaft being massaged by Cho's throat, and the way his thickness bulged out her neck. The Asian girl looked up at him with teary eyes as she sucked him off, her gaze conveying her devotion.
It was as if a switch was flipped and he suddenly pushed Daphne's hand away from Cho's head. He moved and grasped her skull with his own hands, digging his fingers into her hair and scalp, and began slamming her brutally up and down his massive dong. Cho gagged as saliva went everywhere while Harry chased his own pleasure, feeling his release getting ever closer.
"How does it feel knowing that I killed that Basilisk in my second year?" He asked as he pounded her face, seeing her eyes widen at his boast. "Or that I fought off Voldemort right after I killed the snake he was controlling in this very chamber?"
"F-Fuck! This is so hot." Astoria gasped from the side, and he looked over to see Daphne's sister standing there with her hand shoved beneath her skirt. Her eyes were wild as she stared at him as a brutalized Cho's throat, desperately playing with her pussy. "Y-You're destroying her."
Her reaction made him reach his peak, and he sped up his thrusts into Cho's mouth before pressing her tight against his groin. His cock expanded in size, his balls giving way, and her throat bulged out as he deposited his load deep into her gullet. His own release took a while to fully end, all while he let his fingers dig comfortably into her scalp and enjoyed the feeling of her soft black hair.
When he was done he let Cho pull off his cock, revealing her beautiful Asian face to be partially covered by a mess of semen and saliva. Her hair was a mess, sticking every which way, all while the girl breathed heavily to get air back into her lungs.
"Damn Harry…" She breathed. "W-Why didn't I go to the ball with you last year?"
The girls around them laughed.
The new Inquisitorial squad claimed they had found her in a group larger than three people, when in reality she was just loitering in the hall with several other students waiting to get into class early. It also just so happened that Hermione was the only one in the group to get detention with Umbridge.
It meant she was singled out and targeted, and that the Inquisitor Squad had likely been told to punish her specifically. Hermione wondered why that was, but the only conclusion she could come to was Umbridge knew her affiliation with the DA. Or she's just using me to get to Harry…
Hermione glared at Professor Umbridge as she closed the door to the woman's office behind her. The pink-dressed Professor simply ignored her, taking a sip of tea as she lounged at her desk. "Ms. Granger, how nice of you to join me for your detention."
"It's not like I have much of a choice, Professor." She ground out.
"It's best not to speak that way to your superiors, Ms. Granger." Umbridge chided, taking out a cup of tea from the side and sitting it in front of her. "I will ignore your comments for the time being, but for now, how about a cup of tea?"
I might as well try it. Hermione took a sip of the tea, and noticed Umbridge gaining a certain smug edge to her smirk.
"Does the tea taste good, Ms. Granger?" Umbridge asked politely.
"It's alright, Professor." She answered honestly.
"Tell me about the group you and Potter are running."
"Well it's a-"
She stopped. Her mouth froze mid sentence, as Hermione's eyes widened in shock. She had nearly revealed the DA to Umbridge.
"It's alright dear, keep going." Umbridge grinned, like a fat toad who spotted a fly.
"It's a-" She began speaking, only to freeze up once again. "The group is-"
She kept trying to speak against her own will, her mouth moving even while she actively tried not to speak. Umbridge witched her carefully, her grin disappearing and giving way to frustration.
"Speak, girl!"
"I-I…" Hermione stuttered as no words willingly came out. Her eyes began to tear up and panic began settling in. "I can't say."
This all had occurred so suddenly that Hermione was taken completely by surprise. It left her mind reeling and unable to figure out what exactly was happening. She must have cursed me! but how?
"What magic are you under to prevent you from speaking, girl?" Umbridge demanded. "Tell me, was it Potter who did this? Finnigan couldn't speak of your little group either, but he ended up much worse than you. I assume it's because he willingly broke whatever curse your group is under to prevent spreading information, meaning that the veritaserum won't work."
"Veritaserum is illegal!" Hermione blurted out, finally able to speak. Her gaze went down to the tea she had taken a sip of, realizing just how she had ingested the truth potion.
"You forget my role as High Inquisitor, meaning certain exceptions can be made. Especially when sedition and treason is suspected against the Ministry." Umbridge said more to herself than to Hermione. "And since you can't tell me about your little group, I'll just have to get what information I can out of you."
Her heart hammered in her chest, all while she stared at Umbridge with nothing but downright terror at what was to come.
Umbridge's expression only seemed to get even more cruel. "Now, girl, tell me about Harry Potter!"
