Goodbye Alice in Wonderland
Chapter VIII
"Kreacher!" Sirius snapped.
The house elf appeared a second later, scowling. "Master Blood Traitor call Kreacher," the elf muttered in disbelief when he saw the runaway son of the Black family for the first time after years.
Harry decided to interrupt before Sirius killed the elf. After explaining everything to Sirius they decided to take care the easiest Horcrux they could find, which was the Slytherin Locket hidden in Grimmauld Place Number 12.
"Kreacher," he said.
The elf turned to him. "You're the half blood who stopped the Dark Lord."
"Indeed. Kreacher…" he began. "We call you here because of something important. Something I believe that Regulus tasked you with."
Kreacher's eyes widened.
"The locket," he continued. "We will destroy it."
"You will destroy it?" Kreacher asked. "Oh! Master Regulus ordered Kreacher to do it but Kreacher failed! Kreacher failed!" the elf wailed and began to hit himself.
"Calm down!" he ordered.
The house elf stopped immediately and Sirius raised his eyebrow at how the elf obeyed.
"Now, I want you to go back to Grimmauld Place and find the locket. Bring it back to me."
"Yes! Yes! Kreacher will do it! Master Regulus' last wish!"
After the elf was gone Sirius turned to him. "You clearly know how to handle the mad elf," he commented.
Harry shrugged. "Kreacher has worked for me for years. He also takes a shine to the children."
Sirius shook his head. "It's really hard to believe everything you've said. That future…" he shook his head again. "Well, at least this time we're going to finish Voldemort soon. Horcrux…That is madness!"
Kreacher popped in suddenly. "Kreacher brings the locket." The elf said.
"Perfect. Thank you, Kreacher."
Kreacher looked beyond stunned that Harry was would express his gratitude.
"Dobby!"
"Yes, Master Harry!" Dobby popped in.
"Please fetch Lucius for me. And tell him to bring a vial of basilisk venom."
"Yes, Master!"
A few moments later, his husband showed up. "The famous Locket of Slytherin," Lucius drawled upon seeing it.
"Do you bring the venom?" he asked and Lucius nodded. "Kreacher, will you do the honor of destroying the locket?"
Harry feared that the elf's eyes would jump out from his socket at the question.
"Master is going to let Kreacher do it?"
"Of course. After all, Regulus wanted you to do it."
"Oh, Master Harry is too kind. Kreacher is a bad elf. Kreacher said bad things about Master." The elf sobbed in the floor.
Lucius sneered at the pitiful sight the elf made. Fortunately, the Kreacher who served them in the future was better than this version or else he would have the elf punished.
Harry took the vial of venom from his husband and gave it to Kreacher. "It's your moment now."
He put the locket on the floor and said in Parseltongue. "Open."
The locket opened and Kreacher quickly poured the basilisk venom. There were loud shrieks accompanied by black smoke. Then it was gone. The Horcrux was destroyed.
"Master Regulus, Kreacher did it! Kreacher fulfilled Master's wish!" the elf sobbed loudly.
Harry waited until the elf controlled himself. "Kreacher, thank you for bringing the locket. Now, I want you to go back to Grimmauld Place and collect all the heirlooms and artifacts there. Then inform Sirius when you've done it. We're going to renovate Grimmauld Place." He stated. "The house once again will become a fitting place for the Black family."
Kreacher was ecstatic beyond belief that he didn't argue at all with the whole Sirius thing. "Yes, Master Harry. Kreacher will do it."
"Wow!" Sirius muttered in disbelief after the elf was gone. "How did you do that?"
"It's kindness," he replied. "Regulus is the nicest towards him so his loyalty was with your brother for the most part. It will do well for you to remember it Sirius."
"But, still, renovating Grimmauld Place?" Sirius wrinkled his nose in distaste. "I hate that place."
"And where, do you think you're going to live?" Lucius asked scathingly.
Harry glared at his husband and Lucius wisely kept his mouth shut this time.
"After renovation, you won't even recognize it," he promised. "Besides that, Grimmauld Place is one of the safest places in Britain."
Sirius grumbled but finally accepted the decision.

A few days later, Harry felt like he wanted to strangle Lucius when he saw the headline from the Daily Prophet. 'Massive Deaths at Azkaban!' He read further and discovered that all Death Eaters there had been killed by food poisoning. The prisoners had stomachache and diarrhea after consuming stale food. The illness quickly escalated since their health was bad due to living in the cold environment for years. No one made it out alive since the Ministry didn't want to waste efforts on those Death Eaters who were bound to die there sooner or later.
Well, at least nobody suspected that it was cold blooded murder. Honestly, what was Lucius thinking? His husband should have discussed it with him first. He knew that Lucius meant to eliminate the threat as soon as possible but still…killing this many people without a ounce of remorse…This was one of reasons why Lucius was once a feared Death Eater. And Harry never understood that part of him.
It was hard to concentrate that day. He couldn't wait to contact Lucius. Hermione saw him fidgeting when they were doing their homework and mistook it as a sign of tiredness since he spent hours for Quidditch practice. "Harry, you should go to bed." She told him.
He quickly took the opportunity presented at him. "Yeah, I reckon I'm a bit tired." He bid Ron and Hermione goodnight and went to bed. As soon as he pulled down the curtain of his bed and cast secrecy charm, he took out his mirror and called his husband. "I saw today's headline on the newspaper," he said without preamble.
"My deepest condolence to their families," Lucius replied silkily.
He sighed. "Honestly…killing them all?"
"Now, what made you think that I had a hand in it?"
"And what made me think that it wasn't you who did it?" he countered.
"Touché, my dear."
He sighed again. "Just…be careful, alright?"
Lucius smirked. "You worry too much."
"But, with Bellatrix's death, what about her vault? The Hufflepuff Cup is in there." He frowned suddenly.
"We're already in the process," Lucius replied. "The Lestranges brothers don't have any living relative so their wealth and Bellatrix's fall into the Blacks."
"That means Sirius, Andromeda and Narcissa." He said thoughtfully.
"Seeing Sirius is the Head of Black family now, your godfather will control it." Lucius replied.
Hmm…that turned quite well. Harry had a few ideas to use the fortune.
They spent the next hour conversing about many things from their plan to destroy Voldemort, Sirius, the ongoing renovation of Grimmauld Place and, of course, their children and their upcoming future.
"I shall come to Hogwarts to attend Quidditch match between Slytherin and Gryffindor the next week." Lucius informed him.
"Yeah," he replied and smirked. "Come to see me crush the Slytherins."
"Such arrogance," Lucius drawled haughtily. "What happen to the modest Savior of the Wizarding World?"
"Well I happen to meet you and the rest is history," he replied.
"How true." Lucius said.
He yawned suddenly. Being in twelve years old body certainly had its disadvantages.
"You should go to sleep now."
Harry nodded. "Goodnight Lucius. And thank you, for everything." He said quietly.

"Sirius!" he exclaimed when he saw his godfather. Sirius had come to see him before the Quidditch match was begun.
"Hey, Harry," Sirius said, reaching over to mess with his hair. "So, you're going to win today, eh?"
"Of course," he said out loud.
"Very confident," Fred interrupted.
"-aren't you Harry?" George finished.
"I'm merely stating the fact," he replied cheekily. "Fred, George, meet my godfather, Sirius Black. Sirius, meet Fred and George Weasley."
"Forge and Gred at your service." The twins said in unison.
"I think three of you will get along well, being prankster and all," Harry said mischievously.
Fred and George was intrigued by his comment and looked like they wanted to grill him for information. Unfortunately, Oliver Wood barged in, demanding that they stop playing around.
When they got into the field, Harry saw that Lucius was already seated in the spectator tribune, next to Snape. The potions master looked like he was in foul mood, which probably attributed to one Sirius Black, who sat only a few seats away from him. Lucius had spread the rumor that, unfortunately, Sirius was still sane after getting out of Azkaban. However, that meant Sirius owed him life debt and he would collect at the unexpected moment.
Right now Sirius stayed at his and Lucius' house. Since Lucius only came there for their weekly meeting it was a fine arrangement. On daily basis, only Sirius and Dobby stayed there. The house elf was all happy to serve his godfather. Kreacher meanwhile still stayed on Grimmauld Place even though the place was under renovation. It would be finished before Christmas so he and Sirius would move in before the holiday was started. His godfather already contacted Dumbledore so Harry could stay with him during Christmas and summer. He still had to spend at least a day at Privet Drive each year until he was seventeen but that was fine. He knew how to handle the Dursleys.
Like he had predicted, he won easily. When the rest of Gryffindors celebrated the victory, Harry sneaked out of the common room. Lucius and Sirius were already waiting for him under disillusionment spell. He quickly donned his invincibility cloak and three of them walked to the Room of Requirements.
"Wow!" Sirius marveled at the sight of the room of the hidden things. "So, this is where Hogwarts students hide their stuff." He said in glee, obviously wanting to explore the hidden secrets of mischief.
"I found it!" He called.
"The diadem of Rowena Ravenclaw," Lucius muttered.
"Make us smart, right?" Sirius commented. "Moony would love this."
Harry agreed with that comment. Sirius had told him that Remus contacted him after the news about him getting out of Azkaban was published. However, his job made him unable to leave so Remus would have to settle until Christmas to meet them. The man was working in muggle world now, as accountant, since he couldn't find a job in the wizarding world. Harry planned to remedy that, of course, since Remus would be his Defense against the Dark Arts teacher next year.
"Ready?" Sirius asked cheerily, interrupting Harry from his musings.
"Yeah," he replied. A moment later and the Horcrux was gone. "Well, two more to go. Nagini and me."
"Do you truly need to…well, you know," Sirius gestured.
"Yes," he confirmed. "Don't worry thought. The killing curse will destroy the Horcrux and I'll be fine."
"You better be," Sirius muttered.
"I believe our business here is done. We can't linger longer." Lucius interrupted.
Sirius gave him a death glare which the blond man easily ignored.
"It's true. Both of you should leave now." He agreed.
Sirius looked very much wanted to protest but held himself in the end. Carefully, three of them parted way.

A few weeks later, it was time for Lucius to start his plan. He came to the Ministry of Magic for business meeting with the idiot, Fudge. Then he left using fireplace. Or at least, it seemed so. In reality, Lucius stayed hidden under disillusionment spell, waiting for Bartemius Crouch Senior. Crouch entered the elevator and Lucius quickly followed. There were no other people there. As soon as the elevator's door closed, Lucius pulled out his wand. "Imperio."
Crouch was a powerful wizard, that was for sure, but he was no match for Lucius. "You shall go for lunch at Diagon Alley. There, you suddenly want to go for Christmas shopping. You shall call for your house elf to carry your things," he ordered then for final touch so Crouch forgot the whole thing he said. "Your wife died years ago and your son died in Azkaban. You have no one but your house elf. One year from now you shall retire and spent your remaining days quietly. Obliviate!"
Lucius followed the Crouch until the man called for his house elf. After that, he quickly apparated to Crouch's residence, disabling the wards. He found Barty Crouch Junior hidden under invincibility cloak. "Avada Kedavra!" A jet of green light and Barty was dead. Now, Lucius had to dispose the body and what was better spell to choose than Fiendfyre. The raging fire consumed the body and turned it into ash, as well as everything else there but before that Lucius was long gone.
