Kapitel 85: Wizengamot (IV)... {EDITED}

[POV Reo(Edgar)]

"Anyone else?" I asked in a happy tone sending making everyone shudder. All of them were frozen and none of them dared to say anything. Amelia was giving me a look that said 'good job'. Wow... that toad must have been annoying her.

Everyone stayed silent... so I decided that no one would try anything. "Well... now that the unpleasantries are over with let me introduce myself in case some of you might not know me. My name is Magneto... now Madame Bones what are the charges this person is facing?" I said. Hearing the first part everyone present here nearly cursed in their minds thinking how could no one know me.

"He is charged with selling out the Potters and framing Sirius Black" Amelia said and I could already see several people wanted to protest but all of them turned their heads towards me and decided to stop themselves from saying anything.

"Uh... don't stop on my account I am just here to watch... I just want to see justice, after all, I consider myself a paragon of justice" I said in a righteous tone, everyone in the room including Amelia wanted to curse me but stopped themselves. Hehe... this is soo much fun...

"I think you have gone mad...!! There is no need for a trial, he is a Hero who showed Sirius Black's true face to the whole Magical Britain" the Minister spoke up from the first time. All this time he had been hiding behind his podium. When I said that I won't interfere he finally got the courage to speak.

I turned my head towards him and the Miniter noticed and squeaked in fear but I didn't do anything. I then turned my head towards Dumbledore to see what he wanted to say and used Leglimency on him. Oh... so he had found out that I and Amelia Bones are working together. Alas... he can't do anything since I am a renowned Dark Lord and everyone in the room knows Amelia would rather die than join a Dark Lord.

"Madame Bones, I also personally believe that there is no case and we are only sullying the hero Peter Pettigrew, I can't even imagine what Peter feels being treated like a criminal" Albus Dumbledore his usual attack, gain sympathy using his disappointed grandfatherly tone with the twinkles in his eyes.

"Yes... how can you treat me like this? You are wrongly accusing me. I did nothing wrong except exposing Sirius of his betrayal!" Peter Pettigrew spoke up for the first time. He is a great actor if nothing else... he waited for the best moment to speak up.

Another round of chaos broke out in the room, I felt that this is taking a bad turn again. So, Dumbles you want to play like this... then I would get my end result one way or other. A huge lightning bolt erupted from my hands and cracked on the roof creating a huge sound, everyone shuddered and became completely silent.

"I don't understand... why are you not letting this trial begin? If he is a Hero then he would still be a Hero even after the trial and Amelia Bones and her department would lose credibility. But let me ask you, Minister, what would happen if Peter Pettigrew is found guilty and Sirius Black innocent? What kind of impact it would have on your political carrier? Everyone would know how justice-loving Minister you are... just imagine about using that line in your next election agenda" I said in a calm tone... and my little speech worked like a charm. I have been using Leglimency probes on Moron Fudge and he had brought the idea...

Hearing my speech Albus Dumbledore was becoming pale with each moment. He knew what kind of a person Fudge was and he also knew that my speech would buy Fudge and it did.

"Madame Bones please proceed with the trial. I Cornelius Fudge is after all an avid supporter of Justice" Cornelius Fudge stood up from his chair and said.

Albus Dumbledore was completely resigned now... his thoughts were 'there is no stopping the trial now, if I try to stop it once more Magneto might reveal something about my plans or directly attack me or my supporters. I can't let that happen... after all I need to keep my position for the greater good' now how did I know this? Because I have been continuously using Leglimency on Dumbles after Fudge bought my speech.

Two years ago I wasn't able to breach his shields but now I am definitely strong enough to breach his shields and read his thoughts.

Peter Pettigrew was finally sitting on the chair of the accused. "Peter Pettigrew, you have charged with the crimes of betraying the Potters to you-know-who and killing twelve muggles and framing Sirius Black for your crimes" a lady who whom I didn't know announced. She was sitting on Cornelius Fudge's left side.

"Lies... all of these are lies!" Pettigrew screamed.

"Madame Bones, can you present any proof of the accusations?" moron Fudge asked in a professional manner. I didn't even know he could do that... well I shouldn't be surprised since he is a politician. (A/N: Please don't feel offended)

"Yes, I have a memory of Peter Pettigrew being questioned under Veritaserum" Amelia said and handed a vial filled with her memory to the same lady sitting beside moron Fudge. The lady got to the center used some spell on the vial and dropped the memories on the floor and some runes started to glow. I didn't know they have something like that, I haven't seen that either in movies or read in the book. A holographic display of the memory played in the room.

The questions started with something simple like name and date of birth. Then Amelia started to ask questions related to his accusations. The first was if he was a Death Eater or not, soon Peter Pettigrew spilled all the beans and by the end of the video, everyone in the room knew that the accusations are true.

"I have checked the memories and they weren't tampered with" the lady said and went back to her seat. She must be someone really important. I guess I should bring her into my merry band.

Another round of chaos broke inside the courtroom and Albus Dumbledore banged his gavel a few times on the table to calm down everyone in the room.

"But Madame Bones, why did you doubt that Peter Pettigrew was a criminal and how did you even find him. I think there is something more going on here" Albus Dumbledore said... ooh. So he wants to get Amelia into trouble, well I could step in but that would be problematic, let's see if Amelia has something planned or not.

"He was caught inside my office, he was snooping around the documents on Death Eaters kept inside my room. He was also carrying the file which contained the location of Azkaban inside his robes that he took from my office. I didn't know what he wanted so I stunned him and gave him Veritaserum. I can't have important information leak from my room when a new Dark Lord is running around" Amelia said and looked in my direction, I just did a mock bow and waved at her.

"At first I thought he was someone under Polyjuice so I asked his name after giving him Veritaserum and all of you have seen how that turned out" Amelia said, wow... smart girl. She really has planned it all. Now, Albus Dumbledore didn't have any way to prove that both Amelia and I were working together or know each other.

"With the new evidence in light, please raise your wands if you vote Sirius Black to be innocent" Albus Dumbledore said and about 90 percent of the members raised their wands.

"Sirius Black is free of all charges and declared innocent" Albus Dumbledore said and banged the gavel on the table.

"Now, please raise your wand if you vote for Peter Pettigrew being guilty" about 70 percent of the members raised their wands. I noticed all the Dark Families or Families that supported Moldyshorts refrained from raising their wands. "Now, who think Peter Pettigrew is innocent" Albus Dumbledore said and this time no one raised their wands. You would be really stupid to raise your wand for the support of a Death Eater and every other Death Eater in this room has used the Imperius Defense.

"Peter Pettigrew is found guilty and is being charged with life imprisonment in Azkaban" Albus Dumbledore said and banged the gavel on the table. Peter Pettigrew started to scream in protest but nobody heard him. He was lead out of the room by two Aurors. Good... Dumbledore is already making plans for how to bring Harry here. I just hope Harry or Sirius isn't stupid to send Harry to Hogwarts, after all, there are other schools for him.

"Ah... it was a nice experience" I said finally getting up from my makeshift chair and all the iron sand gathered back inside my armor. Several people even forgot that I was here and only remembered me after I spoke up.

"Well... I guess I should be going. Though all of you are free to try to capture me. Gregory Goyle Snr... I might be paying you a visit later, after all, you tried to kill me and I don't like people who try to kill me" I said and walked out of the room. Hearing me Gregory Goyle Snr's face became completely pale. Only now he remembered that he used AK on me.

I walked out of the Ministry like it was my own backyard and now a single person tried to stop me, well this is the class I wanted...
