The Ministry was like a madhouse. Reporters and ministry workers were running around like chickens with their heads cut off. It was a disturbing mental image so close to the end of the war. Too many people had died and not all of them had been killed through the quick painless method of The Killing Curse. Every time he closed his eyes all he could see was the green lawn in front of Hogwarts stained red with the blood of Death Eaters and students alike. It was something he would never be able to forget as long as he lived. He wanted nothing more than to Oblivate himself and just forget all about the war and the people he had lost to it. But then that little voice in the back of his head that sounded so much like Dumbledore would ask him in that airy-happy-go-lucky voice if he could really just forget all those people who truly cared about him. If he could really make their sacrifices worthless? There were nights, alone in the rubble of Gordic’s Hollow, where he would answer that voice, that yes, he could go on living if their sacrifices were made worthless. Then the morning would come and the guilt would come rushing back in ten-fold.
This wasn’t the life he had envisioned for himself at the end of the war. He had always dreamed of maybe going to college with Hermione, or maybe to Auror academy with Ron, then getting a nice job and marrying a nice girl like Ginny and having some kids. A normal life. Not a life surrounded by reporters, hangers on, and fellow veterans who, like him, were trapped living in the past, where good friends and loved ones were still alive and smiling. Were all you had to worry about was how many papers you had to write for class the next day, or how many points were lost in Potions class. He wanted a life and he was beginning to realize that he couldn’t have that life here where all he could see were the ghost of the past and the faded vision of what the future could have been.
He wanted to live.

“Hey Eldwyn! Come and look at this.”
Eldwyn MacLeod leaned out from behind a tower of old parchment that was nearly reaching the ceiling, which was a good seven feet above his head. “What do you have there, Tristen?”
For the last six days, 19 hours, and 47 minutes, Tristen Beckerly and Eldwyn MacLeod had been trapped inside the old record office of the Family and Bloodline Service Department at the Ministry of Magic. With the war over and so many people lost the Ministry had decided to re-instate an old law regarding birth rates. Apparently when the number of children dropped to dramtically the Ministry was required to reinstate the old law forcing all purebloods and halfbloods to conceive a child with a muggleborn or another halfblood , whose family was separated from their own by at least five generations. This is where the Office of Family and Bloodline Services came in. They were required to make a list of all men and women of pure and halfblood origin that were legally old enough and medically healthy enough to have children. Then they were required to make a list for each of those people that contained the names of all people whom the laws criteria for breeding partners. Hence the reason the two young wizards were trapped in a tiny (well tiny in the sense that there really wasn’t vary many spaces between stacks of old records) room sorting out the bloodlines of families, including both legitimate and ill-legitimate children.
“It’s the bloodline records for ‘The Most Ancient and Noble House of Potter.’ Can you believe that! I had no idea that the Potters were one of the ancient houses!”
“Let me see!”
The two heads, one golden blonde the other a dark chocolate-y brown, bent over the large, elaborate parchment containing a magically updating bloodline of the Potter family. “Great Merlin! Tristen, this is one of the most elaborate bloodline scrolls I’ve ever seen!” Eldwyn poked to a section of the bloodline. “Look here it even follows the bloodlines of the squibs born from the Potter line!”
“Not too many family lines in the Potter bloodline started with a squib.”
“I know! There are only three children that were born squibs in the last eight generations. That’s almost unheard of in the old pureblood families!”
“They all seem to be the formation of one main line too. The rest of the family marrying into that line seems to be muggles.”
As the two continued to look over the list it slowly started to sink in that Harry Potter, who was supposed to have only the Dursley family as his only living blood relatives did in fact have family. The family may only be a line of squibs and muggles but they were still within four generations of the main Potter line.
“Do you think we should tell Mr. Potter what we found?”
Eldwyn swallowed and looked back down at the scroll. The Harry Potter he remembered from school would defiantly want to know that he had family still living. “Yes. It’s his right to know.”
Music listened to while writing this chapter:
1. ‘Right Now’ by SR-71
2. ‘Animal I Have Become’ by Three Days Grace
3. ‘Over the Hills and Far Away’ by Nightwish
AN: I know that not much has happened yet but I really like to set up the characters and the setting of any story I write before I really start to get into the plot. Also if you didn’t figure out whom was the character being described in the first part then I am sadly appalled. Any fan should recognize the ‘angst’ version of Harry Potter.
Also, if you want to know more about how HBP ties in and how the dark lord dies you’ll have to wait until Harry tells. So please be calm, I will cover that info when the time is right for that part of the plot. Oh and Harry is already 16 in this story. He has completed his sixth year.
