Chapter 42- Albus vs. Lily's Will
November 1, 1981
At dawn, Albus and two of his Order flunkies who happened to be Aurors demanded Harry until a proper investigation into the deaths of his parents was conducted.
Remus growled under his breath, furious that he was being forced to hold Severus while their godson was ripped from them.
Severus collapsed, fainting from the stress.
Remus did the only thing he could; he sent for Ted, Lucius, Lyall and Faith Burbage-O'Flaherty.
"What happened?" Ted gasped.
"Lily was murdered and Albus just ripped Harry from Severus." Remus ground out. "They practically had wands to our throats…"
Lyall arrived with a sealed parchment he handed over to Faith, "For you, to be delivered upon her death, her will."
"He just took Harry?" Lucius snapped.
"He had Aurors, if we didn't turn Harry over to the Chief Warlock he threatened to arrest us…"
"He's Harry's only living godfather…" Faith mused as she read the will, "Wait Severus is his blood uncle?"
Remus sputtered in shock.
"Lily swore us to secrecy…" Lyall admitted ruefully.
"Like she did the circumstances of her death?" Remus growled.
"Yes but she didn't go into specifics about her death only that it was unpreventable. Those had been the hardest secrets to keep but they weren't ours to tell. Being her twin and your soulmate, it would be harder for Severus to than us. I am the only one left she swore to secrecy aside from Andromeda…"
"With Lily's will and prophecy of her death, it will be hard to dissuade others from her wishes."
XoooooX
Albus, his Aurors and a screaming toddler arrived via portkey to a wasteland.
"Alastor isn't this the site of that Muggle bombing from last week?" Arthur Weasley frowned.
"If by that you mean the Death Eaters then yes." Moody muttered.
"Since it is apparent that Harry's nearest maternal blood relations are clearly deceased. Until proper guardianship can be determined you may take Harry home with you Arthur." Albus said stiffly.
"Now Albus I already have seven children, Ginny's only a few months old and Ron's begun to wander." Arthur protested.
"Bill's at Hogwarts isn't he? You would still have seven…" Albus said dismissively.
"Bill starts in September Albus, he won't be eleven until next month. We're going out of our minds with seven…adding an eighth…"
"That was an order Arthur…"
"Very well sir. Alastor do inform Scrimgour and Crouch they will be receiving my letter of resignation from the Auror Department within the hour and I will be taking a holiday whilst they decide where to transfer me." Arthur said stiffly before portkeying home with Harry.
Albus was furious, it was bad enough that Voldemort was actually dead but to have Lily's Muggle sister and her family dead as well, that was just highly unfair!
XoooooX
Lucius' cousin Sancus was a licensed solicitor and armed with Lily's will, on behalf of the House of Prince filed suit within hours of Harry's unjust removal.
Due to Albus' insistence that he argue against Sancus, the case was assigned to Lady Augusta Longbottom three days following the death of Lily, James and Voldemort.
Albus attempted to file to have both Lily and James' will sealed but given the strict orders that had accompanied Lily's will, he failed.
Lily's express wishes undid every attempt he made…
In the end Harry was returned to Severus and Remus' permanent custody, while Albus was shamed.
Between Lucius and Faith, everything Lily wanted happened.
But all Severus cared about was that Harry was home and his twin was gone…
XoooooX
Severus disappeared into himself after Lily died…
Remus worried for his mate, because it felt like a part of Severus died with Lily.
The only thing that roused Severus was when Harry cried.
Was this normal for twins? Learning that Severus and Lily were siblings much less twins had been a shock.
Severus couldn't explain it to him due to his shock.
How big of a wound did losing your twin cause?
Losing Lily and James was painful enough, Remus couldn't let the loss claim Severus as well…
XoooooX
A week of seeing Severus in this state of shock and Remus had enough, he sent for Ted.
Ted had helped Severus when his depression and isolation the summer of Sixth Year almost killed his mate.
Remus could only hope that Ted could help Severus now…
Ted arrived, his brow creased with worry already. "How is Severus?"
"He's silent. All he does is sleep and take care of Harry. I have to spell broth, nutrition potions and water into his stomach. He doesn't see me…most of the time he can't even hear me…" Remus admited painfully.
"I will do my best to help him. We can't have Severus loose himself now that he's lost part of his soul. It could be worse, were they identical twins we would have less of a chance. That sort of twins really does share half of their soul…"
Remus had been upset at first about Severus keeping his true relationship to Lily a secret but if he knew she was going to die…
Being angry with Severus never really worked for Remus…
"Severus…listen to me. Harry needs you and Remus needs you, you can't leave them yet." Ted said as he touched Severus' forehead with his hand.
Remus would do anything to keep Severus anchored in the living word.
Ted helped them save Severus before, he had to hope that Ted could do it again…
What do you think? Outstanding? Exceeds Expectations? Acceptable? Poor? Dreadful? Troll?
