Harry and the prisoners were now inside the bunker, they were searching in case there were remaining death eaters and then they were greeted by an interesting sight, there were some witches with white cloaks who had their hands and wands in the air and as soon as they saw them, they dropped their wands on the floor.
“Please don’t shoot, we’re not with them, we were forced to work for them!” Said a desperate redhead.
Harry recognized her as Susan Bones, she was still as pretty as he remembered her from his universe but she looked to be under complete stress, he also saw that there were two blonde witches with her, one was Luna Lovegood and the other was Daphne Greengrass, there was also a dark-skinned one that Harry recognized as Angelina Johnson.
As he looked around he realized that they weren't damsels in distress, there were some bodies on the floor, and those witches and wizards on the floor were dressed like death eaters, and before the prisoners released their ire on these innocent witches, Harry decided to step in.
“So, you’re the ones Hermione told me to look out for!” Harry said with a smirk.
The witches’ expressions suddenly changed, soon, they felt more relaxed and relieved to hear those words.
“Do you know Hermione, sir?” Asked Luna with a curious look.
“Please call me Harry and yes, I know her very well, in fact, she told me to not hurt you, girls, are there more white-cloaked researchers like you?” Asked Harry with a concerned expression.
“There used to be two other guys but…They were killed a few days ago when they decided that they had enough,” Daphne said trying hard to hold back her tears.
Soon, she was being comforted by Susan and Luna and Harry nodded.
“Wait are you letting them go, Harry?” Asked a dark-skinned wizard Harry recognized as Dean Thomas.
“Hermione Granger…The woman who helped me conquer this place and free you told me that these witches are innocent, I don’t mean to be rude but I trust her a hundred times more than I trust anyone else,” Harry said with a calm tone.
“But…But they were just as guilty as the death eaters, they were just standing watching while we were being subjected to horrible experiments!” Another wizard Harry didn’t recognize said.
Harry was about to say something but then, Angelina stepped in front which stopped any word he wanted to say.
“He’s right, you know? Even though we were able to defend ourselves, we did nothing to help the prisoners, yes, we were indeed blackmailed to do this but that doesn’t excuse our behavior…However, all these girls were under my command, so, I guess the one that should be taking the blame is me,” Angelina said with a sad expression.
Soon a debate started amongst the prisoners while the girls were trying to stop Angelina from trying to take the blame.
“It’s alright girls…I don’t care if I die any longer, I only wanted the death eaters to die painfully, and considering the screams we’ve heard, I think Harry made my wish come true, so, now I can happily die knowing that my family will be alright,” she sighed happily.
Soon Angelina stood between Harry and Dean and she soon faced the dark-skinned wizard.
“I guess I’m at you guys mercy now,” Angelina said with a calm tone.
But before something could happen, Harry stood in front of Angelina to stop something awful from happening.
“No one is going to hurt you, and I know you guys want to find an easy target to blame…But your real enemies aren’t these girls that have been coerced to use their knowledge to do horrible things, no, your enemies are in the government, they’re guarding the streets, they’re the rich snobs from the wizengamot that create laws that benefit them, those are your real enemies,” Harry said with a cold tone.
Soon the prisoners couldn’t help but shudder, those were really strong enemies that they felt they didn’t stand a chance against if they decided to attack them.
“Listen, you guys can either blame these witches that have been forced to do what they did to survive or you can come with me and help us destroy the common enemy we have,” Harry said before he grabbed Angelina’s hand and led her back with the other girls.
The prisoners stared at him with concern.
“You’re also free to go and do as you please but you need to decide now because the death eaters soon are going to realize that something wrong is going on here,” Harry told them and then he started to talk with the researchers.
They were telling him what they knew the death eaters were planning, they also told him about the experiments the death eaters did while they were trying to take out the magic from the muggle-borns.
“I’ll fight with you, Harry!” Susan said with a motivated tone.
“Yeah me too,” Luna didn’t hesitate.
“Yes…I’ll do it,” Daphne was the one who spoke this time.
“You don’t even have to ask me twice,” Angelina was clearly the one who was the most motivated.
Harry smirked and nodded.
“Well, let’s go then—” Harry was suddenly stopped by Dean.
“Wait, Harry…I want to fight too,” said the dark-skinned wizard.
Soon, other prisoners expressed their desire to join the fight while some others remained in the background and Harry couldn’t blame them, this experience would make anyone want to disappear and be safe.
Harry smirked, he was sure the guys at the manor were going to be happy knowing that they had more allies.
“Harry…Please bring them here,” Hermione said in his ear, she couldn't wait to see her friends again.
“Well, we should better get going,” Harry soon raised his wand. “Please for the ones who want to fight, hold your hands together,” the dark-haired wizard instructed them and soon they did as they were told.
He also grabbed Susan’s hand, it was soft and comfortable, Harry liked the way her hand felt and soon, they were sharing a smile.
“As for those who are staying, please, get away from this place as soon as possible, the death eaters could be in their way as far as we know, so, take this,” Hary threw a collar at them. “This is a portkey that is going to take you to an apartment in London, oh and take this too,” Harry said as he raised his wand. “Obliviate!” He soon made them forget about him.
After successfully erasing his existence from their memories, he disappeared alongside the ones who wanted to fight, and in a matter of seconds, he landed in the garden at Potter’s manor.
Soon they were greeted by the healers of the order and the researchers were greeted by Hermione.
“Girls!” Said the brown-haired witch with an excited tone before she launched at them and hugged them as if her life depended on it.
Rose decided to politely greet them and they were nice to her, Harry couldn’t help but smile at the sight, he was happy to see that people were starting to get something back, it was hope.
“Harry, well done, we saw everything through the screens,” Dumbledore said with a calm tone.
“Thank you, sir, I guess we’re more than ready for the main event, right?” Asked the dark-haired wizard and Dumbledore nodded.
“Yes, the time has come…We’re going to take over the ministry,” Dumbledore declared and while many people were excited about it others were a bit concerned.
It’s going to be a difficult fight.
