Chapter 9: Bittersweet Victory

Everyone was called back into the courtroom and Harry felt the weight of the world on his shoulders. He had dealt with his abusive relatives, Death Eaters and Voldemort on his ass for the majority of his youth but this was a deeper pain. He was going head to head against the one person who was supposed to love him and be there forever. But once again, that dream was taken away, or so he believed at first. This was going to be the hardest battle in his life. His thoughts were interrupted as the Chief Warlock entered the room and took his seat.

"Thank you ladies and gentlemen, I appreciate your patience. Now, onto the next case; Lord Harrison James Potter-Black vs. Ginevra. Lord Potter-Black, what would hope to get out of this case?"
"I move for full sole custody of my children, a divorce and full charges to be pressed against her." Harry said. Lucius looked to the younger man and had to hide the look of awe. Gone was the hurt Harry and in his place was the young man who battled fearlessly against Voldemort. This Harry was ready to fight with all he had. Well, the child does have something to fight for. He thought. He has his children and looks like my son as well. Oh well, it could've been worse. Draco could've gone with Weasley.....no, over my dead body! I'd rather he go with Harry...
"I also wish for her to leave me and my children alone, to never see us again. She has hurt us more than once and has even tried to kill us. We don't need someone like that in our lives. We deserve to be happy, loved and able to live in peace." Lucius nodded at that as well. The boy, no, young man was absolutely right. The children were innocent, they didn't ask to be born. Of course, Harry couldn't be blameless, he did sire them. What he should've done was head for the hills in regards to the woman. Well, he didn't know right away. The war messed up everyone. I had no idea it was to this extent.
"Mr. Davis, what doesn't your client want out of this?" The Chief Warlock asked, snapping Lucius to full attention. Richard's father stood up and cleared his throat.
"My client wishes for half of the fortunes, a divorce and she wants nothing to do with the children." At this everyone in the courtroom was in a uproar. In the Wizarding World, children were treasured. The Potter-Black children were no exception. To have their own mother disown them without a second thought was disturbing and Lucius was ready to give her a piece of his mind while destroying her and his law practicing rival. He saw how upset Harry was and he wasn't standing for it. Luckily the children aren't here. Lucius thought. They were with Naricissa in Hogsmeade. She and Draco had decided that the children needed to be out so they were under Draco's protection. Both Lucius and Harry had comfort in that thought. Draco was a close second when it came to power. He was able to hold his own in a fight, both the wizard way and the muggle way. Lucius thought it was barbaric but when Draco explained the benefits of physical offense and defense, Lucius had no choice but to relent. He knew that his son was right and he was just protecting what was his. Or soon to be if he plays his cards right. Lucius thought with a smirk. Lucius stood up and smirked wickedly. Showtime.
"If it pleases the court, I would like to call Ginevra to the stand." He said. Davis' eyes widened and Ginevra's face paled a bit. She wasn't expecting the Malfoy patriarch to call her up to the stand. Lucius reveled at their reactions. They were on his turf now. The woman took the stand, swore in and faced Lucius. Lucius allowed himself a small dark chuckle before moving in.
"Well, young lady, I see that even your family has disowned you after the stunt you pulled. Kindly tell us, if you held nothing but resentment to Lord Potter-Black, why did you marry him? Why take it further and give him children? If I resented someone and they proposed to me, I'd throw the ring at them and clearly refuse. What possessed you to let this farce drag on for as long as it has?"
"You'd have to be a fool to refuse him." She answered. "Harry has power, wealth and prestige. For my effort, I felt I deserved it, that it was my right..."
"Really, where was it stipulated that it was yours and yours alone to have the right to abuse him and his children?" When she clammed up with no answer Lucius smirked again. "Tell me, how long have you held this resentment for him?"
"After my first year." She said. "After what happened to me with that cursed book and in that cursed chamber...."
"So you feel that it was his fault that you fell victim to the diary do you? Do you not recall that it was he who risked his life and almost died for you?"
"I wanted him to notice me, but all he saw was his best friend's little sister."
"You're nothing but a spoiled brat." Lucius said. Harry clapped his hands over his mouth to stifle a laugh. He didn't think Lucius would go there but the older man was bold as brass. "So because he didn't immediately take an interest in you, you hated him..." Hm, sounds like Draco.

"It was not his fault that you fell victim to the diary. Did you even have the sense to inform a teacher of it when it felt out of place to you?"
"No, it was kind to me, gave me attention. Now as his wife, I have many fans and people adore me."
"Maybe in your own little world." Lucius hissed with disgust. "No one adores you here. You're a disgrace. And everyone here will see how you really are. This ends now. If it pleases the court, I have evidence to how this woman has treated her family. Memories that have come from the children and their father. I would also suggest that Lord Potter-Black be excused while these play, I'm certain he doesn't wish to relive it." The Chief Warlock gave a nod and Kingsley kindly escorted Harry out. When he was gone, the memories played and when all were done, the Chief Warlock wasn't the only one to blow a fuse. When the woman said her peace, it was only fair, the courtroom was enraged. Lucius had to stop himself from gulping. It was as if he was in a den of pissed off lions. The Chief Warlock called for order.
"Lord Malfoy, bring Lord Potter Black back in here if you please, we are ready to make a decision." Lucius nodded and in no time at all, Harry was back in the room.
"Before I pass judgment, is the jury ready?"

"We are," The foreman said solemnly.
"What say you?"
"We find Ginevra guilty of all charges. We also award Lord Potter Black full sole custody of his children and grant his petition for divorce. She is granted no assets, no money and no status." Ginevra dove for the nearest wand she could find, her lawyer's, and rounded on Harry.
"You son of a bitch! You will not take what I've worked so hard to get! I will not be left with nothing! I hope you never wake up. Sopor!*" She cried and hit a shocked Harry. Everyone gasped. No one had expected the Savior to not stand against the enraged woman but then again, he didn't dare raise his wand against the mother of his children. Lucius glared at her as she was grabbed and held. The Chief Warlock stood up and glared as well.
"Healer Zabini are you present?" The Chief Warlock called. The Healer in question came quickly to the front of the room and Lucius had to school himself from doing a double take. He didn't expect the Zabini Heir to become a Healer. Well, my son's going to become a Potions Master, talk about a lot of changes. Draco is not going to like this move against Harry one bit....
"He's in a deep sleep Chief Warlock, more specifically, in a coma. I would like permission to take him to St. Mungo's immediately."
"Permission granted. Lord Malfoy, remain here to pass on the court's decision." The older blond nodded and the court continued once Harry was removed.
"Ginevra, you are hereby stripped of your magic and you will no longer be able to reside in the Wizarding World. You will remain in the Muggle World for the rest of your days and you will live as one. Our world is no longer open to you. Your wand please?" Her wand was brought forward and snapped. Ginevra screamed but the Chief Warlock continued. "You will not even remember anything or anyone pertaining to our World ever again. It'll be like you were never here. The sentence will be carried out immediately. I don't have the stomach to punish Lord Potter Black he's been through enough. This judgement is final and court is adjourned." He stood up and left and everyone was mixed. Even though it was a victory, it was bittersweet. Lucius packed his notes and Davis Sr. approached him.
"Congratulations." He said "Give my wishes to Harry, the boy didn't deserve any of this."
"No he didn't. All he wanted was to be happy. I've noticed that every time he gains a shred of happiness that it's taken away. Well, excuse me, I have to inform his family of the verdict and his condition. Good day, Davis." With that, the Malfoy Patriarch left with an icy air. His temper was nothing to the burning fury of his son. Hope he doesn't blow up in front of the children.

Draco and Narcissa were entertaining the children, all five of them. Teddy had stopped by to play with his God siblings and his second cousin. Draco didn't want to admit it, but he had fun at the aquarium and the dragon reserve followed by Hogsmeade and Diagon Ally for shopping. And through it all, Lily remained with Draco. Everyone knew Lucius was her favorite but Draco was a close second. What won him over was her calling him 'Papa'. He didn't have the heart to deny or correct her. At the present they were listening to Teddy regale of his godfather's adventures and Draco was surprised that Harry lasted so long. Lily was in his lap while the boys were sitting around and next to him. The Floo flared to life and Lucius stepped out alone. Narcissa was first to her feet, taking her husband's things.
"Lucius, where's Harry?" She asked carefully. The older man met her gaze then looked at the children.
"'Cissa, take the children to Andromeda's. They can't visit Harry right now."
"Father," Draco began with a low warning voice. "What happened?"
"Draco, the children......" Narcissa pointed out. Draco was ready to blow up. Despite his upbringing, the younger Lord Malfoy had an explosive temper. He pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed heavily, allowing his parents to prepare the children to go to Andromeda's. Lucius would rather step foot in his sister-in-law's than the Weasley home. I'll do the Killing Curse on myself before I step foot there. Although he was civil to them, Lucius wasn't going to get all chummy with them.

Andromeda Tonks née Black reached for her wand when her Floo roared but she relaxed when she saw her grandson come through. Her sister followed, which was a shock, four children then the Malfoy men. She almost collapsed from shock as she saw her brother in law.
"Lucius," She said in a clipped tone. "What...."
"Aunt Andy!" A happy Lily chirped from Draco's arms. Andromeda smiled and tenderly took the girl. Her heart dropped when she realized that Harry was not with them. She had kept up with the news and if Harry wasn't here, it wasn't a good sign.
"Where's Harry?" She asked carefully. Lucius was about to answer when Draco cleared his throat and mouthed 'not in front of the children'. Lucius nodded and looked at Teddy.
"Theodore, please take your cousins to another room so we may speak freely?" Teddy grimaced at his full name but nodded, taking the Potter Black trio and Scorpius to another room, closing the doors behind him. After five minutes, Lucius nodded and continued. "Harry's in St. Mungo's and he's in a coma."

Sorry it's too me too long. More to come
