HP: Harry Had Enough

He then looked around the room until he was staring at Megan. He could see the love in her eyes shining back at him. He watched her lips mouth "Do it!"

With a nod, he turned back. "No Madam Bones, I would not be swearing to hearsay. I would be swearing to what I lived."

It took several moments before realization started setting in and gasps were heard all around the hall. He stood before Madam Bones for a minute before lowering his hood. As she looked up, she saw two glowing emerald orbs staring back at her.

From the crowd, there were shouts of "Impossible" and 'It has to be some kind of hoax. He lied last year.' The most recognizable was "Bloody Hell"

Amelia was still stunned and could only say. "But you went through the Veil."

"Yes ma'am, and gave up a life of ridicule, abuse, betrayal, and sorrow as the boy-who-lived or whatever rot you people decided to call him."

Amelia stood for a minute before asking "Poppy, could you come verify that he is who he says he is and that he is indeed alive?"

"I verified it last night. Even saw the scars."

Amelia said "Mr. Potter, I'm afraid that will not be good enough. Either you have done something that was thought to be impossible or you perpetrated the biggest hoax known to wizardkind."

Cho stood and said "Madam Bones, you're talking about Harry and if you knew him, you would know that nothing is impossible for him."

Harry flashed Cho a grin before saying. "Madam Bones, it was no hoax and the only answer I can give you as to how it happened would have to be classified under family magic that cannot be revealed to anyone outside my line. How about this?"

"I swear on my life and magic that Harry James Potter died when he went through the Veil. So Mote It Be." The oath was accompanied by the expected flash of magic.

Albus said "Very slick Harry. However you did not swear it on your name so it is not binding. If you are not Harry James Potter, then who are you?"

Harry smirked. "One topic at a time. Why don't you summon the student registry book and see what it says about me?"

Albus turned to Minerva who summoned the book, when it landed in front of her; she turned to the correct page and paled. She said in a shaky voice "Harry Potter's name is in red indicating he is dead. There's no way to cheat or fool the book."

Albus looked at him warily. Harry asked "Is there anyone new listed in there?"

"It says….it says…" She looked up wide eyed in disbelief.

Megan stepped forward and grabbed Harry's hand. In a strong voice, she said "It says Harrison James Peverell, the Lord Peverell, the Lord Gryffindor, the Lord Slytherin, the Lord Potter, and the Lord Black."

Albus said "How is that possible?"

Harry said "You should know Headmaster; you nosed around in my family's business for years. It was ancient magic stemming from the creation of all magic. It was magic an evil light wizard such as yourself would never understand because it is pure unlike you."

Someone yelled out "How can a light wizard be evil?"

"The same way a dark wizard can be good."

Ron said "All dark wizards are evil."

Harry smirked "I'll tell Moody you said that next time I see him."

Harry then stepped away from everyone and around the head table. As soon as he was below the large Hogwarts seal, he raised his hands and it lowered to the floor. He took out the ritual knife and sliced his palm. Everyone sat there with there mouths hanging open as he smeared his blood over the Gryffindor and Slytherin sections of the shield. As soon as it was raised back into place, the shield flashed with a bright white light.

Fudge asked "What was that? You know blood magic is against our laws."

Harry smirked. "I just claimed my station in the castle as the heir to two Founders. As far as Hogwarts is concerned, putting on the rings is not enough."

Minerva asked "What does that mean for Hogwarts?"

"It depends."

"May I ask your meaning?"

"Yes, it depends on how bad you piss me off the rest of the night whether or not I remove the name of Gryffindor from the list of houses."

"Why would you do that?"

"Because there's no way I want that bunch of back stabbing traitors to share my name in any way. They are an insult to the name Godric Gryffindor."

Harry walked away from her and escorted Megan to her parents and motioned for the other girls to join her. Everyone grew quiet as he hugged each one of them. "Protect yourselves and watch out for the old fool." Megan kissed him hard and said "Wrap this up love, I want to go home."

He gave her a smile and moved back to the entryway. He said "Well, now that you know a little more about my life, it's time we got to the real reason I wanted witnesses here tonight. It was my intention to have you bear witness to the destruction of a dark lord but I never thought I'd get a two for one deal."

Albus said "Are you going to kill me Harry?"
