Now alone in his office, Albus seethed to himself as he scowled at the wall. This duel was a disaster, he didn't want these kinds of things happening inside his castle at all.
It had been well over twenty years since the last honour duel had been fought on Hogwarts grounds, just as he had wanted.
Everything had been going exactly to plan, but now this duel was changing everything. He had heard the reports from the ghosts, portraits and elves that he had monitoring the students.
The castle was abuzz with the news of the challenge, and muggle-born students young and old were asking questions about what an honour duel was and what was worse the purebloods and half-bloods were telling them.
He had even had reports of questions about the Olde ways and traditions being heard, students searching the library for books on the subjects, not that they would find them, he had them removed long ago.
But all the same, this was not going to plan at all.
He had been spending his years at Hogwarts trying to change things for the betterment of the magical world.
Erasing all talk and teachings of the older ways and traditions in an attempt to better merge the muggle world and the wizarding world, and to help the muggle-borns assimilate better with magical society.
It was why he had pushed in the wizengamot to have the old traditional ritual outlawed and restricted so badly, and why he had abolished the celebration of the solstices at Hogwarts in favour of their muggle counterparts.
He scowled even deeper, he was stuck now. He could do nothing to stop the duel, nor the questions going through the student's minds as he had been hoping to do so.
And now he couldn't risk trying to penalise Magnus for starting this whole mess, damn that woman, how dare she threaten him.
He had all but forgotten the Black's seat at the board's table, it hadn't been filled in so long he didn't think it would be remembered, but obviously, Andromeda did remember, she was going to be an even bigger pain in his side than he thought.
He would need to start to make plans to deal with her somehow and get her out of his way.
As Albus sat brooding and screaming at his desk, had he only taken a moment to look up, he would have seen the angry glare of Phineas Black looking down on him as he did so.
No, the former Headmaster Black was not one bit pleased with Albus after what he had just witnessed.
He may have been the headmaster of Hogwarts at one time, but his loyalties were always with his House and his family, blood came first, and it was clear to him that Albus did not have good intentions towards his former House.
Something would definitely have to be done, one way or another, he would stand with his family.
-------
The entire way to the Great Hall Andromeda and Magnus walked in silence, both of them were quite livid at what Albus had just tried to force Magnus to do.
Magnus knew enough from his reading that Dumbledore's attempt to intervene in the affairs of the Houses was a huge breach in decorum.
Such matters were never to be breached by outside parties unless the matter was brought up by one of the two sides first it was highly inappropriate for Dumbledore to try and interfere, but apparently....
....That had never crossed the headmaster's attention, or it did and the man just thought himself the exception.
Once they reached the Great Hall, Andromeda left him to go to the Ravenclaw table on his own while she headed up to the head table.
Itwas clear to all that they were annoyed, had Magnus noticed he would have seen his hair had changed to a blazing red in his anger on the walk from Dumbledore's office to the hall....
....but he was too caught up to pay attention to such things.
As soon as he sat down some of his other year mates scooted away from him but Daphne and Tracey moved closer to him curious.
"Magnus, what's going on?" Tracey asked carefully. Daphne for her part remained silent, happy to let Tracey broach the subject as she listened.
Magnus scowled, "old men who don't know when to keep their crooked noses out of matters that do not concern them." He stated with a growl.
"Um, what?" Tracey asked confused as Daphne arched one delicate eyebrow at the statement.
"Twisted old Goat fuckers who don't know to keep their mouths shut," Magnus said again his teeth grinding as he did so, ignoring the half a dozen spit takes from those who had heard what he said.
"..." Tracey was just speechless as she looked at him not sure how to respond.
"Language Black," Daphne corrected him, "and can you please explain it a little clearer and with less vulgarity," she said with a sniff of disdain for his vulgar language, as was appropriate for her status.
Magnus frowned at the reprimand but took a breath as his scowl lessened before he spoke again, "Dumbledore called me up to his office just a few minutes before I came to breakfast, and he tried to get me to call off the honour duel I challenged Draco to."
""What!"" Both Tracey and Daphne said in unison their eyes wide at the implication of the headmasters' actions.
Almost instantly the Ravenclaw table was abuzz as the news of what Magnus had just revealed travelled down it, and many of those who knew what it meant were scowling.
"How dare he," Tracey said with a scowl now on her face matching Magnus'.
"That was highly inappropriate of him to do, I trust you didn't listen to him," Daphne spoke with a frown her irritation showing.
"Of course I didn't," Magnus replied, "Aunt Andy had me out of his office within a minute of him making the demand, but still the fact that he even made it had both me and Aunt Andy fuming."
