Harry Potter is not mine. This is a story from a fan.
When you're done, You're DONE.
Ch 27 Dumbledore just had to walk in.
"ALBUS DUMBLEDORE COUNSEL FOR THE DEFENSE".
Fudge looked up, and you could see the relief run over his face. They had been destroying Albus for the last couple of weeks. He was sure that if they went that way, Albus would make it all about him and they could get Harry together with Albus out of the way. "I see that you received our message on time" Fudge asked him.
"I must have missed it, but by coincidence I".
"So he is getting a message while the one standing on trial had to find it out on his own. You would almost think they didn't want me here" Harry asked Before Albus could answer him completely.
"Of course, they didn't want you here Harry" Susan called out from the balcony. "Without you, they could win this, now they are just little kids crying for their mothers".
"We are not" Lucius screamed and he slapped his hands before his mouth.
"No Susan he would scream, My Lord O My Lord Who Must Not Be Named Help Us" Harry called out to her.
"HE IS NOT BACK" Fudge screamed as he hammered his hammer.
"He is, ask Lucius he was there just like me," Harry said with a smile.
Andromeda was still standing there and looked sideways at Amelia. "Susan was right, he really knows how to throw them for a loop". Amelia frowned and shook her head, she just didn't understand what Andromeda was saying. Andromeda smiled, "He knows how to rattle them".
"Cornelius I'm here to represent" Albus started again.
"NO YOU ARE NOT," Andromeda said. "I'm here to represent Mr. Potter, and it is clear he is here because of you".

As Morgana and Dorea left, Allan Croaker just looked at how they left the chamber. He took his chance and walked back to the doorway and reached out to touch it. "I would not do that if I were you" Morgana called out from behind the other door. "You can only enter Avalon when you have the magic in your blood. You don't have it and you can not enter. If you do it would mean you will die like all the others". Allan looked at her and realized they hadn't talked to him at all. He just heard them in his mind.
While the two of them left, Allan thought about all the things he had heard about Avalon. Sure it was a mystical place. No, it was another realm as he thought about it a little more. King Arthur and Morgana had been brother and sister. So It wasn't hard for him to think they had a doorway. This other world was first heard from at that time. He was suddenly snapped out of his thoughts when he heard someone calling to him.
"Kind Sir, did Morgana pass this way".
Allan looked up and saw a night standing with his head through the doorway. "Yes, she did, I also think she will be back in a couple of Minutes".
"Ah I see, I will wait for that time right here, carry on".

Albus was looking back at Andromeda. "You are not here for Harry Potter. I did not ask you to and I can do it because of Local Parent".
"That only counts when he is at Hogwarts Albus, not when he is on holiday" Andromeda cut in before he could finish his words. "It could also count when you are his guardian but that is something we can only know if the will of the Potters was read".
It was a clear sign that Albus was thinking about what to say. Harry knew that Sirius was his sworn Godfather. But he did not know if they knew it too, when he looked over his shoulder at Tonks he saw her nod and he knew they knew.
"I took that position after his parents were murdered," Albus told them.
Amelia jumped to her feet and stepped before the minister. She didn't wait to get the floor and jumped right in. She was also the only one who could do that. "Mr. Dumbledore. I have to ask you to hand over your wand. You are Under arrest for suspicion of kidnapping a miner against his will".
"What I never did anything like that," Albus said as he looked at Amelia. For the first time in a long time, Albus knew he did not have the upper hand. So as he looked at the ceiling he prayed for help.
Harry did the same thing and saw Fawkes appear in a ball of flames. He didn't know how he knew but he got an image of Albus flashing away in the same ball of fire. "Fawkes can you come here for a minute" Harry called out. Fawkes did what he asked and landed on his shoulder. He only looked him in the eye while he sat on his shoulder. After a second he flew to Albus and landed on his shoulder. The same thing happened with him, only Albus seemed to know what Fawkes was telling him.
Amelia looked at it all and dropped her wand in her hand. The moment Fawkes appeared she knew Albus could be taken away. If that would happen she had a clear case of guild. If it did not and Albus gave her his wand she could go after him in search of the truth. With a sigh, she saw how he hung his head and handed over his wand. Amelia wanted to go on but stopped when she felt the hand of Harry on her lower arm.
Before Harry could tell her something he gestured for Andromeda to join them. "You can't go after him right now. If you do it will all go down after it. You first have to get me free. If you do I can tell you about Voldemort. If I get to that you will get your hands on a lot of Death Eaters in on go".
Amelia looked over her shoulder and turned back to him a moment later. "What do you have in mind".
"If you get to that part you can get all of them by showing my memories. There you all will see all of them when he gets back. I'm not sure about Albus but I think we will need him. We will have to have him on a leash at least".
Amelia thought about it and looked at Andromeda, "What do you think about it".
"Well, we could turn up the heat a little with Harry. Even if he has called a Patronus to protect himself. He does need to have some proof as to why he did it. If not he will have done underage magic which is punishable by our laws".
"I still have another one of them. That happened before my second year. A house elf, no my house elf pulled up a hovering charm to keep me at home".
"You mean that year when you fought a Basilisk" Amelia asked him. Harry gave her a small nod and looked over his shoulder. First, he looked at Tonks and then he looked up at Susan. Both of them looked back but they didn't know what he and the two adults had been talking about. When he looked back Amelia smiled at him. "I know what we will do. We will get enough stuff on Harry that will not only cast him in a bad light. But also one that cast the ministry in an even worse light. If we do it like that we can make it so that we have to go through all of your life. It will not only expose you a little but also all the things that have been done to you. In the second year, we will get to the hovering charm. That will lead us to your house elf. And so we can take it through the year. If we are lucky we can get Albus on neglecting to inform the ministry making you go free".
"You mean we can get Lucius too because he placed the diary in the hands of Ginny. the one that released the Basilisk into the school".
"I forgot about Lucius. If we can get him into this it will be a very bad blow to the dark side because he not only placed you in danger but also all the other students". So she turned to Andromeda and clearly told her, "Go get them".

Sirius was sitting at his kitchen table and looking at the wall. Remus was at the ministry and would Floo call him with the latest news. So there was nothing left to do than to just sit there looking at the wall. Hermione was sitting next to him talking about how they could not blame him. It was something Sirius knew, but in his experience, it could still go the other way. Suddenly he got to his feet and rushed out of the room. He went straight to the portrait of his mother and placed a silencing ward around it. "Mum" he called out. "Mum do we still have the direct link to the atrium at Gringotts".
Walburga looked at him for a moment. She knew her son was on the run and didn't know what he wanted with this. After a moment it rang a bell and she nodded. "If you go, make sure you do not step out. Insite the bank you are on Goblin grounds. Outside it is not. So whatever you do, stay inside at all times". Sirius nodded and rushed back to the hallway where he took the Floo. In his run, he called out to the twins to guard the fort. He didn't tell them anything because if they didn't know, they couldn't tell.
It was a moment later he got out in the atrium of Gringotts and looked at the place where he should go. He needed to help his Godson and this was the best thing he could do. He went to the first teller and asked for the account manager of the Blacks. The moment he turned around he had to keep himself steady because of whom he saw. There walking in was his second mother. The mother of James one Dorea Potter/nee Black.
Sirius was slowly turning white as he looked at the one he thought was dead. "MUM Potter" he called out.
Dorea Potter stopped walking and turned to the sound of the voice. She frowned a little as she looked at the man who called to her. She didn't know him at first. But as she looked closer she could see a lot of another person she once knew, 'Sirius is that you".
Sirius heard her voice but he did not see any movement of her lips. So as he looked at her and heard her. He clearly thought that he was looking at a ghost or that he was looking at something that just wasn't there and he was slowly getting mad. 'Sirius look at me. Listen with your mind because I'm talking to you'Sirius shook his head and looked up at her. She was now standing right before him while she was holding out her hands. Sirius didn't know what to say and just looked at her. Slowly she placed her hands on his cheeks and looked him right in the eyes. Sirius could feel her going through his mind and looking at everything. He was ashamed of some of the things he had done when he was young. He was even more ashamed when he saw her looking at them while he went along on her trip. When she got to Harry her speed went down. She was looking at how her son and Lily went into hiding. She was looking at how Sirius found their bodies and how he handed Harry to Hagrid. She went along with him as he rushed after Peter and how he landed in Azkaban. When he got out she got her first look at Harry and she almost dropped her hands. When she got to today she turned to Morgana.
Sirius looked on as this other woman did the same to his second mum. It didn't take as long as he thought it would but when she did something happened he had never seen before. This woman turned on the spot and held out her hands. He could not see any wand but he could feel a magic he had never seen or felt before. All the customers disappeared. The only ones that were left were Dorea, this woman, and himself. He could see that the Goblins were still there and the guards were lifting their axes above their heads. It was clear to Sirius that they were about to strike. He wanted to warn this woman to look out but there was nothing he could do. It was like a wall of magic was keeping him where he stood. The moment he felt it he had to think about Harry. He could do the same thing and he had done it when he stood before the painting of his mother.
The woman went on and about ten Goblins appeared before her all in a semi-circle. One of the Goblins wanted to say something as he lifted his sword above his head. He wasn't only ready to attack but he did. The moment he got close he burst into flames. Sirius looked on in horror as she saw the Goblin being burned to a crisp. The other Goblins dropped to their knees as they all screamed Hail Morgana. Sirius looked on and could not believe what he was hearing. Was it really, could this woman really be the one and the real Morgana Lefay?
As the oldest Goblin stepped up to her she went medieval on him. Sirius was listening but her words sounded like another language. As he listened better he could hear her talking Ghukliak. 'The Goblins had one task to do and that was to protect the bloodline of Morgana and King Arthur' Dorea Potter told him in his mind. 'I had her magic running through me. While all of the Blacks had her blood running through them just like I did only a lesser part of it. Just like you and James. James got it through me just like Harry Potter got it through him. All of us have a little magic of Morganna through me but someone got it all'. This time Dorea pointed at Morgana. 'What she just did was to search for her bloodline and it was all but gone. There are only seven persons left with our blood as far as we know. The blood is found in Andromeda and her sisters Bellatrix and Narcissa. It can also be found in Nymphadora, Draco, You, and Harry Potter. Draco feels different so he may not be of blood anymore. If that is so then he has done something that would kill the blood and magic from Morgana and that would end his claim on the power'.
"But mum" Sirius called out to Dorea. "I thought you were dead".
Dorea got a sad look on her face as she looked at one of her own. Sirius had lived with her for a long time and she did look at him as a son. "I still am Sirius' she spoke in his mind. Í was dying of Dragon pox and so was Charlus. Because of the Magic from Morgana, I was able to walk through the veil and walk out in Avalon. Only the ones with magic are able to do it. Charlus joined me because we were married by Magic and Harry will be able to. It will happen a long time from now.'
"Are Lily and James with you".
This time a tear dropped from her eyes. 'No, Lily did have her magic. Somehow she came from a Morgana line of squibs and ended up back in our world, our magical world. She and James didn't come to us, they could not because they were killed in this world. If you get killed here there is no crossing over. I was dying too but I was still able to walk through it on my own power. When I got to the other side I was healed but not allowed to go back. This time and only this time Morgana had to come back because her line and magic are dying in this world and when it's all gone the world as we know it will end. Now being here is not a guarantee or a healing patch. No, it is far from it, we have to find out who is the next in her line and hope he or she will be the one to carry it on. If not you will all die'. We are also here to look if there is another Lily from a line she does not know about'.
Sirius looked on as Morgana was waving her hands around. The more he saw her do the more he saw the things Harry had done. She was not performing magic like they had all learned at Hogwarts. No, what he saw was her directing it like she was directing an orchestra. "She does what Harry does when he is mad" Sirius mumbled.
Everything froze as Morgana stopped waving her hands. She turned to him and Sirius did not know how she did it but it was like she glided to him like a ghost. 'Who is this Harry" she asked him in a way of. Tell me now or you will get hurt.
Now Sirius had been a true Aurour. He and James had been a force on their own. They could intimidate people and they could get people running for the hills. So there wasn't a soul in this world that could intimidate him to say something to save his hide. Now he was looking at two black eyes no longer from this world but from the land of legend. "H..H... H... H... HHEEE. I.. I... i is".
'He is my grandson' Dorea told her. Morgana just looked at her. She moved her lips but just like before there was no sound. Sirius could swear that he could see Lily spelled out on her lips but that was all he could read. For a second time, he knew Harry was stronger than anyone he had ever seen but this person could be just as strong. That was another thing. He was in the middle of a standstill between the Goblins and the most feared Witch of history. It was told in legends that she was even stronger than Merlin himself. She and Merlin had a fight because she had been dark. She had been the darkest of them all. If the legends had to be believed she was even darker than Voldemort and Grindelwald wrapped up into one. Looking at this person he could see just how powerful she was. But to say she was dark, NO. Well Yes, if you count the one Goblin that went up in flames. But other than that he had not seen anything that told him she was dark. The second thing he had seen was his second mum and she would never be on the side of a dark witch that was the one thing he knew for sure.
Morgana was still standing in the middle with all the Goblins around her. Papers were coming out of corridors and rings were floating around her. She did not look at them but if you looked closely enough you could see Rings going back to where they came from but also rings that went up in flames.
"What is happening" Sirius asked Dorea as he kept on watching.
'She is looking at all the bloodlines. Goblins can see a lot with their kind of Magic. It is the magic that was taught to them by Morgana and Merlin. But like every master and sorceress, she never taught them everything she herself knew. Looking at it they never thought of learning more about themselves. Morgana however is now looking at every line. She not only sees if lines have died out or if there are other branches of the tree that are still living. Every line that has died out is being erased and separated over the living branches of those lines. The main thing she is looking for is her own line and we hope that it has branched out or we are in deeper shit than we think'.
It took an hour before Morgana was ready and she looked back at Dorea Potter. 'Well, the seven we have are the last seven there are. Draco can be written off just like Bellatrix. What I can see is that Bellatrix has killed without a reason, and Draco has an outstanding duel. That one was created by himself and it was created against his own line, my line. I'm not sure if it will cause any problems but as far as I see he has it with your grandson and my bloodline. I do feel some of my magic running through them all. The one thing I do not feel is a connection. If it is a wizard that is wielding my magic then he has to have a witch that is guiding him. But I do not see that connection.
Sirius heard it all and could not keep his mouth shut. "I do not know what you are talking about, but I do believe that there is a connection between him and one of the girls that had been staying around him". Before he was done talking he felt the hands of Morgana on his cheeks and felt her entering his mind. While Dorea did it slowly Morgana went through him like a bull. He could not say that it hurt him but it wasn't an easy feeling. When she got out of his head it took him a couple of seconds to get his head clear again. "Why did you do that" he almost screamed. Before he could go on he could feel her magic shutting his mouth as she looked at Dorea. He is the one but he has no clue. Nymphadora Tonks is his witch but she doesn't have a clue either. They are together and are connecting but it has been too long. They should have been together from his birth. They were in the beginning but something broke that connection.
Both of the females looked at him and Sirius wanted to hide away. 'you know what it is" Sirius, Dorea told him.
Sirius nodded and looked down. He did not know how to say it and he knew that the two had seen everything in his head. "Well, after the death of Lily and James Albus took Harry to Petunia the sister of Lily".
'He took him to that bitch' Dorea screamed in his head, making Sirius back up further. She calmed herself down and looked right into his eyes. 'You are his Godfather and it was your task to take care of him. Now I have seen that you have been in Azkaban but you can't tell me you have been there for very long'
Sirius looked down after those words. He did not know how he could tell her but he had to. So with his eyes on the ground, he mumbled, "I have been there for twelve years".
Dorea Potter just looked at him and Morgana, who was looking at her. She did not know the words she wanted to use against Sirius, but she did know what she could tell Morgana. "If I'm right, Harry has been separated from Tonks for over thirteen years. I know they have made a connection before. Because if they were able to make a connection now, there had to be a basis for it, or it could not have been done. So we have to make sure this part is done and after that, we have to find him and tell him what he needs to know. We also have to do it before tonight or the doorway will close and we have to stay here for a whole year. You do know what that means, we will not survive because we will die before that time comes around.
Morgana was only nodding at her words as she waved her hands around again.

Andromeda knew what she had to do but she did not know how. So she turned to Albus and pulled him to the side. "Listen up she whispered". I have anough to put your wrinkled old ass in Azkaban for many, many, many years". Andromeda always wanted to say it, and now was the time. The question I have is if I can trust you".
Albus wanted to say something but Andromeda turned to Fawkes. "You can read his mind so you see if he is trustworthy. If he is not I will make sure he is put away for the rest of his life". Albus swallowed and looked into the eyes of his femilier. "Now I know you brought him to Petunia, I also know you have done it without the orders of Lily and James. Sirius is his Godfather and you know it. You could have gotten him free but you failed. So my question is did you do it intensely or did you take too much on your plate".
"I Can" Albus started.
"Don't you talk to me talk to him" and she pointed at Fawkes. "If you did it intensely then he will know that you have been hurting his friend. If not I can get Harry to tolerate you again". Albus looked at her and at Harry. "Yes, Albus he doesn't trust you anymore and he has his reasons. I know them and I agree with him". Andromeda didn't know anything but she knew that it had to be something like this. So if you're familiar say it is alright. I can tell it to Harry later on and I can make it so that he will tolerate you again". Albus knew he had to look at Fawkes. The phoenixes had the ability to not only read people. No, they could also tell you if they were truthful or not. It took a while but eventually, Fawkes nodded at Andromeda. She had a good look at Fawkes and asked him if Albus had taken to mutch and lost focus. When she saw Fawkes nod she knew she had been right. Albus had the three highest positions in the magical world and that was too much for one mind to handle. So it was clear he looked at the big picture and was only trying to keep it together. So after another nod, she went back to Albus. "You lost focus on the little things. So what we are going to do hear will hurt you. It might mean you have to drop a position or two. I would start with the Chief Warlock and hand it to Augusta after this. Then there is the I.C.W I would say gave that to Apolline. She is here in the audience and it is clear she is here for Harry. She is there in the I.C.W for France. She could run it and that will be in our favor".
Albus looked around and knew that Harry had more friends than he had thought of. If he wanted to save himself he had to do it. So he only nodded and walked back to the middle of the floor. "I'm here as a witness for the defense if they need me" It was after it he walked to the seat that was for the Chief Warlock. Fudge may be leading this trial, but he was still the chief.
It was now that Andromeda turned back to Amelia. She gave her a nod and Amelia asked where they were before they were so ruthly interrupted. Fudge swallowed and looked at his papers. "We..." He started. "We were at the point when Harry said that he had to send a Patronus because of the dementors".
"We were also at the point that we found out you could not," Harry said making Fudge turn to him.
"You have done it and we all know it. So we have to snap your wand for endangering the muggle world" he screamed.
"Well, we only have to get to punishment when we know he was lying. So tell me, minister, is there a way to find out if there had been Dementors in that place" Andromeda asked him. It took a long time for Fudge to answer her. He didn't know if there was a way to find out or who to ask. Andromeda smiled and took out a paper. She thought it might have gone this way, so she had taken the liberty to find one or two things out before they arrived that morning. "Well, let me help you. According to the Azkaban's records, there should be one hundred and twenty Dementors at Azkaban". She looked at it again and looked over at Amelia. In a whisper, she pointed at the paper and said. "There have been one hundred and twenty people who have been thrown through the veil. Do you think that every person we throw through the veil becomes a Dementor".
"Well, it might be. We don't know anything about that arc so who knows. We do know that the bodies end up on the other side but the soul is gone" Amelia told her. "I will ask Croaker about it when we are done. If what you think is right then you might be on to something".
"So how can endangering the Muggle world be harsher than exposing the magical world" Luna screamed from the balcony. Andromeda and the others looked up clearly asking what. "Well, that ass with the hammer said it so can he just change the reason why he wants to snap Harry".
"I'm the minister" Fudge screamed as Amelia went over to the dicta quill to look what had been said.
"She is right, you did say it. So what will it be".
This is it again for this time see you all in two weeks.
