BXBX NOVEL Chapter 102 - Untitled (II)
[POV Albus Dumbledore]
Hah... with the wards out of my control now, I can\'t keep watch throughout the school. Hah... Lady Ravenclaw!! What does that kid knows?? After all, she just acted out on her hate and threw Severus out of the school and demanding changes... what I have doing was only for greater good... why can\'t they understand this...
Since Magneto made his appearance nothing has been is going like I want... I wish if Severus could be still here. Can\'t she see that we can\'t stop the hundreds of years of dispute that has been going on between Slytherins and Gryffydors. If teachers like us mess with that we will only make the resentment grow in them. And the thing about getting a teacher who would teach muggleborns about magical society... if she keeps on going like this she will destroy the delicate balance in the current society which needs to be there for the greater good...
And the salt on my wound is that Harry Potter\'s letter can\'t be even delivered. That means only two things... Harry is dead which can\'t happen and that he is under living under Fidelius. I still have to try but I don\'t even know where to start looking... I have to get him in Hogwarts before the next term starts or the future is completely doomed... I already have the Philosopher\'s Stone, I am sure that Tom would be after it so, I need Harry here too or plan is not going to work... after all Harry must die for the greater good.
Hah... at least I have arranged something for Miss Ravenclaw, that will keep her busy. It would have been best if I had drugged Vicky Ravenclaw directly then I would have been able to control her but her Lady ring nullifies all drugs as soon as they enter her body. Nymphadora Tonks... she had to be used for the greater good, through her I could keep Vicky Ravenclaw busy. Hah... I don\'t know what\'s happening outside of this room if the elfs don\'t tell me... I can\'t use the portraits any longer to keep an eye around the school...
Suddenly the door opened and Amelia Bones along with several aurors barge into the room along with a stunned Charlie Weasley in cuffs, Vicky Ravenclaw and Nymphadora are there too... dear Merlin... is he already caught? But how could that be... I removed any connections he had related to Nymphadora being drugged... he only knew that Nymphadora was drugged but he had no idea who drugged her with what... so Amelia shouldn\'t have arrested him... Albus... calm down... you need to play it cool...
"Ah... Amelia, so how can I help you and what is Charlie Weasley cuffed?" I asked her in my usual tone and tried to use leglimency to read their surface thoughts.
Tch! I clicked my tongue in annoyance... she brought the aurors who are good occlumens.
"It\'s madam Bones to you when I am on duty and Charlie Weasley is arrested for possession of Amortenia linked with him... he had already used them on Nymphadora Tonks" Amelia said in a stoic voice and gestured towards Nymphadora. I was completely shocked... was he already carrying Amortenia on him to drug Nymphadora... this was my fault... I should have checked before. Now, I need to diffuse this situation... I can\'t let this escalate...
"Ah... there must have been some mistake, I assure you. It must have been a prank" I said in my grandfatherly and used Leglimency on Nymphadora this time so that I could know about the situation. Reading the mind of Vicky Ravenclaw would have been much better and welcome but her damn family rings protects her from any mind reading or altering magic.
I was quite surprised in the inside even though I was completely calm outside. I didn\'t expect Nymphadora to have strong mental shields like this... yes, her shields are still weak and I could break them but she would definitely know that I used Leglimency.
"I don\'t care if it was a prank or not, Amortenia is illegal so I have carry my duty and arrest Charlie Weasley" Amelia said with her stern face.
"Can\'t you look away from this matter Madam Bones... he is still a young boy. We must forgive and give him a chance... after all young people can make a lot of mistakes..." I started to give another speech hoping that Amelia would let it go but Vicky Ravenclaw cut me off.
"I don\'t care if he is young or not. I will not have a student like him in Hogwarts and sully our ancestors\'s name" miss Ravenclaw said in a cold tone. I can\'t let this happen... Weasley\'s are my avid supporter...
"Please Miss Ravenclaw... he made a mistake... we must forgive him so we could bring him to..." I was saying but Vicky Ravenclaw cut me off, how dare she?? I am the great Albus Dumbledore... how can she cut me off??!
"That\'s Lady Ravenclaw to you and I am not privy of your matters, you can forgive or do whatever you want but after Madam Bones takes him with her he would never enter Hogwarts again" Vicky said with complete seriousness in her voice. Even though I was completely filled with rage... I can\'t blow up. I have to try again.
"Lady Ravenclaw... surely you won\'t destroy someone\'s future just for prank, right? You are a Ravenclaw how can you destroy someone\'s education?" I asked her in a disappointed grandfatherly tone. I also attacked her family background, this is my last try, if she still persists then I have to let her have her way. But there was something in Vicky Ravenclaw\'s eyes that scared me... it seemed that she already know how I would react. This same thing happened during the meeting when she dissolved the Board and when I tried to bring back Severus.
"It wasn\'t a prank Professor, he used the drug on my friend and would have surely taken advantage of her if I didn\'t intervene. This wasn\'t a prank... this was a **** attempt" Vicky Ravenclaw said with venom in her voice while glaring at me... she was challenging me to say anything more. Hah... looks like I have to give up now, at least he won\'t be punished since he is a pureblood. Even if he is a Weasley the court would still prefer him over Nymphadora Tonks, especially after her mother is disowned by her family.
"Hah... I am truly disappointed in you Lady Ravenclaw, I didn\'t expect you to destroy someone\'s education" I said in a disappointed and saddened voice after releasing a sad sigh. I would need to plant my image in their minds after all, it seems it worked since Nymphadora Tonks looked quite uneasy because of it.
If it had been before, there would have been no way that I would have allowed Amelia and the aurors to know about this. But, without even informing me Vicky Ravenclaw brought the aurors. This gives me a bigger reason to gain control over Vicky Ravenclaw... after all it is all for the greater good.
Soon all of them left my room, the aurors took away Charlie Weasley and Nymphadora and Vicky Ravenclaw just went to their dorms... I immediately turned my head towards the floor. If Charlie Weasley had Amortenia in his possession then I am sure that Molly Weasley brew it. I had to inform Molly... I can\'t lose Molly now... I have already lost Severus, losing Molly would deal a huge blow to me.
I immediately ran towards the floo and took some floo powder and called the Weasley residence... even if Vicky Ravenclaw has the control of the wards of Hogwarts our floo are still active and can be used by us. Soon Molly answered from the other side... "Molly... it\'s an urgent matter, open the floo... I need to come over" I said in a hurry with worry on my face. I have to act like I care after all Weasley\'s are one of my greatest allies.
"Of course Professor" Molly said and opened the floo...
*******************************
[POV Nemuri(Vicky)]
One week has passed since Charlie Weasley and I just returned from his trial and I am completely lost. Reo and Momo had told me before like Tonks did, but I didn\'t believe them... I thought it would be still worth a try but nothing...
The court didn\'t even consider Tonks as a person with rights. It was a complete ruse, he was only thrown out of Hogwarts because I made it so but he only got a slap on his wrist from the court... and warning that is all.
I have read that the wands of wizards are snapped when they are expelled from Hogwarts but that also didn\'t happen this time... they just said he is a pureblood and we can\'t take rights of magic from a pureblood for a half-blood.
It was completely unanimous decision to let off Charlie Weasley without any punishment and what\'s more his mother who brew the Amortenia just got a warning because Albus Dumbledore protected her...
This world is completely rotten... it\'s rotten to it\'s core... maybe I should take up Reo\'s attitude. If you want to deal with someone then get rid of him...
