Chapter 12: End Game

It was an abrupt end, but an end well welcomed.

The future High Queen Rachel Jackson and her soon-to-be betrothed, the Prince Consort Harry Potter, were all but carried into the Ministry by the cheering crowds. Amelia Bones bowed to the young princess, saying 'The Rulership of Great Britain is yours, my lady."

Rachel smiled, "Rise, Lady Bones. You have been a just an honourable woman all your life. As such, you retain your role as defender of the innocent and judge of the guilty."

Amelia smiled, and hugged her daughter Susan who shot out of the crowd to hug her.

Rachel cast a sonours charm on her throat and declared, "HERE ME, CITIZENS OF MAGICAL BRITIAN!" She called. The crowds quieted in anticipation.

"STARTING TODAY IS A NEW CHAPTER IN OUR HISTORY." Rachel declared. "ELYSIUM HAS RE-ESTABLISHED HER CONNECTIONS TO THE GROUND, SO WE MAY LIVE IN HARMONY ONCE AGAIN. PERHAPS, SOME DAY IN THE FUTURE, WE SHALL EVE DO THE SAME WITH OUR MUGGLE BROTHERS AND SISTERS!"

"BUT BEFORE THAT DAY CAN COME, THE VILE STAIN AND CORRUPTIONS LEFT BEHIND BY TOM MARVOLO RIDDLE, HIS PREDECESSORS AND HIS SYCHOPANTS MUST BE PURGED SO WE CAN WALK TOWARDS A NEW FUTURE HAND IN HAND!"

The crowd cheered. Minister Fudge and Dumbledore both attempted to approach the princess and interrupt, but they were blocked by the people jumping and listening.

"FIRSTLY! BY ORDER OF MY MOTHER AND I, NEVER AGAIN SHALL THE MINISTRY ACCEPT BRIBES FROM THE WEALTHY TO AVOID IMPRISONMENT! DOING SO SHALL BE PUNISHABLE WITH IMPRISONMENT FOR THE SAME ALLOTED TIME AS THE VICTIM! FOR VIOLATING THIS CODE, CORNELIOUS FUDGE, DOLORES UMBRIDGE AND ALL HEADS OF DEPARTMENTS EXCEPT FOR MISUSE OF MAGICAL ARTIFACTS AND THE DMLE, HAVE BEEN SUMMIARILY DISMISSED! ANY ATTEMPTS TO PROTEST SHALL BE MET WITH PRISON TIME, FOR THEIR PART IN ALLOWING TOM RIDDLE TO RETURN!"

Fudge let out a squeal of indignation, but he was utterly crushed under the cheering of the throngs. Fudge sputtered and looked around, but no one came to his defence – the crowds gathering around outside the Ministry were cheering in agreement with this upstart princess!

"SECONDLY! NO MAN, OR WOMAN, OR CHILD, SHALL BE DENIED SAFE EDUCATION, EMPLOYMENT, OR HOUSING IF DUE TO BEING FIRST OR SECOND GENERATION WIZARDS! THE VILENESS OF BLOOD BIGOTRY IS THE PRODUCT OF A WORLD LONG GONE AND MORE BARBARIC THEN OURS. MAY IT NEVER DARKEN OUR DOORSTEP AGAIN!" More cheers greeted this decision.

"IN EXCHANGE FOR LOWERED REPRISAL FOR THEIR ASSISTANCE IN RIDDLE'S QUEST, THOSE WEREWOLFS AND OTHER MAGICAL CREATURES WHO AIDED HIM IN EXCHAGE FOR FREEDOMS THEY DID NOT POSSESS SHALL MEET WITH THE ESTEEMED LADY BONES AND THE COURT TO REACH AN AGREEMENT REGARDING THE FUTURE OF THEIR CHILDREN!"

Many people in the crowd had relatives who had fallen under the 'dark creature' banner, and they were most excited to hear this. It was far more then former Minster Fudge would have ever considered.

"IN REGARDS TO HOGWARTS SCHOOL OF WITCHCRAFT AND WIZARDRY, ALBUS PERCIVAL WULFRIC BRIAN DUMBLEDORE IS HEARBY DISMISSED FROM HIS POST AS HEADMASTER, FOR ALLOWING SUCH CRUELTIES, DANGERS AND INJUSICIES TO GO UNPUNISHED WITHIN THE SCHOOL'S WALLS! NEVER AGAIN SHALL THE PURE-BLOODED BE GIVEN SPECIAL TREATMENT, NOR BEING PLACED IN A SINGLE HOUSE AUTOMATICALLY DEEM A CHILD EVIL OR DANGEROUS! SEVERUS SNAPE, POTIONS MASTER, IS ALSO DISMISSED, BUT IN LIGHT OF HIS WORK AS A SPY AGAINST VOLDEMORT, HE SHALL BE TRANSFERRED INSTEAD TO WORK IN THE DMLE! PUNISHMENTS FOR BLOOD BIGOTRY SHALL EXIST, INSTEAD OF SUCH CURSES AS 'MUDBLOOD' GOING SPOKEN EVERY DAY! ONCE AGAIN, THIS SHALL BE A HOME FOR ALL WHO USE MAGIC!"

The crowd began chanting Rachel and Harry's names, throwing hats in the air. Rachel took a moment to glance at Harry at her side, who mouthed out something Dumbledore couldn't understand from the distance between them.

"AS THE MATTER OF SIRIUS ORION BLACK, HE HAS BEEN DISCOVERED TO BE INNOCENT! THE TRUE CRIMINAL OF THE MASSACRE, AND THE BETRAYER OF LILY AND JAMES POTTER, IS PETER PETTIGREW! HE HAS BEEN GIVEN OVER TO THE DEMENTORS OF AZKABAN TO SEE JUSTICE DONE! SIRIUS BLACK HAS BEEN ACCEPTED INTO THE PRAETOREAN GUARD, WHERE HE SHALL SEE TO THE JUSTICE THAT HE WAS DENIED HERE!"

Rachel paused meaningfully for the crowds to swallow this. "IN LIGHT OF THIS, I DO DECLARE THAT EVERY MAN AND WOMAN, NO MATTER WHAT EVIDENCE IS AGAINST THEM, HAS THE SACRED RIGHT TO A FAIR AND UNBAISED TRIAL, SO SUCH THINGS NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN!"

Once the cheers quieted down again, Rachel spoke again. "FINALLY, MANY LIVES HAVE BEEN DESTROYED BY THIS WAR OVER BLOOD BIGOTRY. MY BETHROTED, MY PRINCE, HAS KNOWN THE SUFFERING OF AN ORPHAN KEENLY. SO LET IT BE KNOWN! THE LILY AND JAMES FOUNDATION SHALL OFFER BOTH WAR RELIEF AND FUNDS FOR THOSE ORPHANED AND WIDOWED BY THIS TERRIBLE WAR!"

It was this decree that was met with the most acclaim. Harry bowed, finally being recognized as a hero not for the merit of his mother, but his own good heart and nature.

The day Elysium reconnected to the earth was five years before the crowning of High Queen Rachel Potter and her husband, Prince Consort Harry Potter. Far and wide the wedding was celebrated, with some joking that they were Salazar Slytherin and Helga Hufflepuff reunited, finally seeing the peace they had given up their lives for.

Hogwarts earned back its title of 'Safest School in Britain' under the leadership of Minerva McGonagall. Many praised it as a school where all children were learning and living in peace and comfort. A year later, Hogwarts was one of the first schools to openly admit werewolf and siren children among its students, a huge leap forward in equality.

Amelia Bones and her daughter, the equally talented Susan Bones – later Susan Weasley, upon her marriage to Ron – cleaned up the streets of any remainder of Voldemort's evil. Crime in Britain reached a remarkable all-time low under their care.

Daphne Greengrass threw off the last of her parents dogma upon her decision to marry Dean Thomas, a proud muggleborn. The couple would go on to produce three children.

Hestia and Flora Carrow became professors at Hogwarts upon their majority being reached, having majored in all their subjects. Hestia would later marry and have twin children, though Flora remained proudly single.

Hermione Granger began a class in potentially creating magic – spells that could revive the elderly and guard from unforgiveable curses, once thought unblockable. Her work was widely read and praised all around the world.

Colin Creevy started the world wide newspaper, which ran straight from Elysium to anywhere in the world. He would later become engaged to Princess Rayne, while his brother worked in the kitchens of the palace, praised highly by the royal family.

Fred and George Weasley would go on to by Zonkos and becoming prankster legends.

Fifteen years later, the Statute of Secrecy was taken down. Muggles and wizards met once again for the first time in generations. The last of Morgana's evil was gone.

One day, when Princess Cassia Potter was walking past one of Elysium's great lakes, she saw the water shimmering. She saw the reflection of a great castle, one other then hers.
