Chapter 24: Before the trial

After reading the book, Daphne Greengrass becomes more gloomy.

'Is it impossible to cure Astoria?' thought Daphne in her mind.

It is impossible to find what blood was used to curse her Ancestor. Her mother's family had the blood curse for thousands of years!

And as for finding a potion that grants immortality? That is also impossible. She has never heard of a potion that grants immortality!

"Anthony, thank you for your effort. I think it is impossible to cure my sister. Let's leave this matter..." said Daphne and started to cry, leaning on Anthony's shoulder.

'Potion that grants immortality? There should be one which is the Elixir of Life! Currently, the Philosopher's stone is not destroyed yet, and if we can acquire the Philosopher's stone we can produce the Elixir of Life and cure Daphne's sister' thought Anthony.

Therefore he needs to change his plan to petrify Voldemort's soul. Even though it is easy to petrify Voldemort and destroy his known Horcruxes, Voldemort has his purpose right now.

If Albus Dumbledore finds out that Quirrel is dead before the end of the year, he would no longer need to hide the Philosopher's stone and maybe Nicolas Flamel and Albus Dumbledore would destroy the stone.

Therefore, Anthony needs to wait until the end of the year and wait for Harry to acquire the stone and defeat Voldemort. Only after that, he will acquire the Philosopher's stone and use it to heal Astoria Greengrass.

"Daphne, have you ever heard about the Philosopher's stone?" asked Anthony.

Daphne who was sobbing looked at Anthony with watery eyes and replied.

"The Philosopher's stone? The stone that can convert any metal into gold?" she replied to Anthony.

"Do you know that the Philosopher's stone can make an elixir that grants immortality?" asked Anthony.

"The Philosopher's stone can do that? But, how can we take the Philosopher's stone? We don't even know where it is" said Daphne, but seeing there is still hope, she become more optimistic.

"Don't worry! We will!" replied Anthony.

Anthony has released the Basilisk in the Forbidden forest, and reminded him to not petrify Tom Riddle when he is drinking unicorn blood. Even though the basilisk is unwilling, after Anthony explaining that his best friend's sister's life depends on it, it agrees with Anthony and massacred the Acromantula's nest.

Arragog the Acromantula, didn't know that the nemesis of the spiders was released from the Castle and was eaten by him.

Some lucky little acromantulas survived the invasion of the basilisk and fled from the forbidden forest and had a migration towards the south.

It caused so much damage to the muggle cities that located nearby Scottish hills so that the Aurors had to work day and night to obliviate the muggles that has seen huge spiders.

Even the Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge had to meet British muggle Prime minister John Major in order to suppress the news of gigantic spiders' migration.

The November of 1991 was written in the history as the Acromantula migration black month. The cause was unknown but the Ministry of Magic has set up a preparation plan to control the migration of magical creatures.

After the deed was done, the serpent of Slytherin had to hibernate for some time in order to fully digest the magical nutrition from the acromantulas. Little do Anthony know, The Basilisk's venom has become more potent after eating huge number of acromantulas and has become the most poisonous venom the world, surpassing every known poison potion in the world. The basilisk's dark green scales has become more dark resembling black.

The 22nd of November, 1991, Friday.

Early in the Morning, when students were having breakfast at the Great Hall, three letters addressing to Albus Dumbledore, Anthony Lefrancois Dumbledore, and Harry Potter has arrived at Hogwarts.

Dear Mr. Harry James Potter, (Anthony Lefrancois Dumbledore for Anthony's letter)

The Ministry of Magic has accepted your request on trial to invoke Albus P.B.W.Dumbledore's duty of your Magical Guardian and adoption to Mr.Randolph Spudmore.

The trial would happen at on the 22nd of November, 1991 at 3.00 PM (4.00PM for Anthony). The location of the trial is Courtroom seven, at the fourth floor of British Ministry of Magic.

Sincerely,

Head of Department of Magical Law Enforcement

Amelia Bones

Albus Dumbledore got a similar letter, indicating that there would be two consecutive trials that Albus Dumbledore's presence is required.

After reading the letter, Dumbledore become shocked and felt aging. He looked towards Harry Potter and his Grandnephew Anthony Dumbledore and found out that they have received the letters and was talking to each other.

Dumbledore asked Professor Severus Snape to bring Harry Potter and Anthony prior to 3PM to the Ministry of Magic and notified him that there would be a trial of adoption of Harry Potter and Anthony Lefrancois Dumbledore.

After being summoned to the Potions master, Anthony and Harry went into the dungeons.

In the Potions master's room, there could be seen various herbs and potions bubbling.

"Sit, Mr.Potter and Mr.Dumbledore" said Professor Snape to Anthony and Harry Potter

"I heard that Mr.Potter you and Mr.Dumbledore is going to get adopted to Mr.Randolph Spudmore, the owner of Firebolt Company, is that correct?" said Severus Snape.

"It is correct,sir" answered Harry Potter.

"As the teacher of Hogwarts, and old friend of your mother Lily Potter, I would suggest you to stop being adopted due to your own security" said Severus Snape.

When Harry heard that Severus Snape was his mother's old friend, he become surprised. it was the first time he heard that Severus Snape was his mother.He wanted to retribute but after hearing that Professor Snape is his mother's friend, he was at loss of words.

Anthony Dumbledore barged into the conversation and said "Excuse me, sir! But Harry Potter has the right to be adopted. Even if you are his mother's friend, you has not the right to stop him from being adopted. And I would like to ask for the past eleven years, have you ever visited Harry Potter and looked at the condition how he was living?" asked Anthony.

Severus Snape become curious as how Harry Potter has lived. It is true that he didn't came to Harry Potter to visit due to his hatred of James Potter.

"Mr.Dumbledore, I think it is also not your place to put your nose in! Five points from Slytherin!" said the Professor.

Anthony become enraged and said "Take points from Slytherin however you want to! It doesn't matter. Who cares about the Hogwarts cup that is being passed every year! But I would like to remind you that Harry's Hogwarts letter was addressed to Cupboard under the Stairs, at 4 Privet Drive!" said Anthony.

When Professor Snape heard that Harry Potter lived at the Cupboard under the stairs for the past eleven years. He become guilty.

'Lily's son lived under the stairs in a Cupboard?' thought Professor Snape. He felt guilty for not visiting Harry even for once.

"Have you seen Harry Potter's slim and malnourished body? Have you ever seen his muggle oversized muggle clothes that are passed from his cousin Dudley?" said Anthony with a high tone.

When Professor Snape thought about the slim boy, he become surprised. He only noticedvnow that Harry is indeed slim and malnourished. He was blind because of the Jade green eyes resembling Lily and never thought about Harry's body.

"The beatings of Mr.Dursley has cracked his bones, he was beaten because of Harry made accidental magic! It is a miracle that he has not developed an Obscurus like me!" said Anthony feeling emotional.

When Professor Snape heard the beating because of Harry made accidental magic, he become more guilty. Because he experienced the same treatment as well from his muggle father Tobias Snape when he was a child.

Because Anthony has said the words that made Harry resemble Professor Snape's youth. The Potions professor felt guilty towards his lover's son. He promised to himself that he would protect the boy but in the reality, did he protect him?

'What have I done? I didn't mean to make Harry live like this!' thought Professor Snape.

'Albus Dumbledore! What have you done!' said Professor Snape in his mind. It was because of his blind trust to Albus Dumbledore, Lily Potter died, it was because of Albus Dumbledore Harry Potter suffered for the past eleven years.

Professor Snape feeling emotional said with a stern tone "Very well. I will bring you to the Ministry of Magic immediately" said Professor Snape and asked the kids to come near to the secret fireplace in his room.

"There is a fireplace in the Potions room!" said Severus Snape.

When he finished his sentence a magical fireplace has just revealed for the boys.

'Fidelius charm?' thought Anthony. He didn't notice that there was a fireplace in the room, but right after when the potions professor mentioned it, indeed a fireplace has appeared.

Professor Snape has given Harry Potter and Anthony grey ash and instructed to how to use the floor network. He demonstrated by saying British Ministry of Magic in the fireplace and put the ash down.

Green flames has engulfed him and he arrived at the Ministry of Magic.

Harry Potter and Anthony followed the Potions professor and altogether they has flood to the Ministry of Magic.

"British Ministry of Magic!" said the both and arrived at the Ministry of Magic.
