Chapter #17: New world order.

Harry was having a nice evening, the classes were over, and he was finally going to share a meal with Fleur, also, Hermione was coming with him too, soon, the three of them were sitting farthest from everyone on the Hufflepuff table.

“You can’t sit here, this part of the table is for—” The Hufflepuff prefect tried to intervene.

However, Harry handed him ten galleons, and soon, the guy’s expression changed; he was so irrelevant that Harry didn’t even bother to remember his name, and the feeling was mutual, but once he saw the ten galleons, the guy was ready to suck his cock if Harry ordered him to.

“Oh, I’m so dumb, this is to strengthen the relations between houses and schools, right? Sorry to bother you, guys. Enjoy your meal, if you need something else don’t hesitate to ask me,” the prefect said, completely at the mercy of Harry, who was having a hard time trying to contain his laughter.

Hermione looked at him with a curious expression, and he knew where this was going.

“That was interesting, to say the least,” Fleur said with an amused expression. “I really admire men who don’t fear anything,” Fleur giggled.

Harry smiled at her, and any other woman would’ve been angry if they saw their boyfriend flirting with another woman; however, Hermione had other concerns. They've just recently gotten some money, but not enough to be wasting and throwing it around, so she wanted to know what led Harry to act like this.

“Okay, what was that, Harry? Why are you throwing your hard-earned money away like that? This seat has nothing special, we could’ve sat in any other part…” Hermione said, concerned.

Harry just chuckled.

“My dear Mione, as you know, I’ve been having some meetings with Professor Dumbledore. I can’t tell you everything yet, but let me assure you of something: my financial problems are soon to be over,” he winked at her. “And trust me, we really need this place; we’ll have the best view for what’s about to come,” Harry winked at her.

“Harry, what—” Hermione couldn’t continue questioning him because suddenly, the room was filled with strange wizards and witches.

“Are those…?” Fleur questioned with a raised brow.

“Yes…Aurors,” Harry answered before she could say something else.

Hermione’s eyes widened, it’s not usual to see a lot of them in a place like this, and soon, all of them moved towards the Slytherin table. They approached many of the students from fourth year and above, which means they were only speaking with adult wizards and witches.

“What are they—” Hermione’s question died, and soon, her eyes opened wide at the sight.

The students were being arrested, and a lot of them tried to escape, but they were no match for the Aurors.

“Look at them, Hermione, aren’t those Aurors amazing? I want you to especially pay attention to that purple-haired witch…We’re going to spend a lot of time with her in the future,” Harry told her, and she looked at him with a surprised expression.

"She's gorgeous...You have good taste, Harry," the French witch said with an amused expression, and Harry lightly chuckled. “Why are they arresting them? Are they involved in Neville Longbottom’s death?” Asked the French witch with a curious expression.

Neither Harry nor Hermione answered, but Hermione soon started to see a pattern.

“Malfoy…Crabbe…Goyle…Parkinson, a lot of them have very important parents with dubious reputations,” Hermione soon started to see the clues. “Harry, are you involved in this operation? Those are all your enemies, as far as I know. Please don’t hate me for thinking this,” Hermione didn't want to think badly of her boyfriend.

Harry, on the other hand, could only place a hand over hers; she felt warm and safe.

“Yes, I’m involved in this operation to a certain degree, Hermione, but while this is happening, their parents are being arrested too,” Harry explained. Hermione and Fleur, both witches, gasped after hearing that.

Harry moved his hand, asking them to get closer as the information he was about to tell them was very important.

“It seems like all of them are involved in the attacks that took place on the Quidditch World Cup,” Harry told them with a serious tone, and they opened their mouths wide.

Before they could say anything else, Dumbledore entered with Alastor and the minister. Soon, they stood in front of the students, it was time to explain what was going on.

“Sorry to bother you students, I, Cornelius Fudge have approved the state of emergency that allows our security officers to use veritaserum to keep the order, and after doing that, it came to us that all these people that have been arrested are involved in one way or another in the attacks that took place in the quidditch world cup,” the minister’s words caused everyone to gasp.

The reporters were taking notes and photos. Harry remained in his place, even though he was the one who came up with this plan; it was for the best to keep his role a secret. The last thing he wanted was for the information to leak and become a target.

“The cleanse is starting, all the institutions are about to get cleaned off the corruption that has invaded every aspect of our society, we should be happy,” Harry told his girlfriend.

She was a bit skeptical; however, she liked seeing someone as bigoted as Malfoy being arrested, he who always thought he was going to get away without facing the consequences of his actions. It was a satisfying sight.

Meanwhile, in different parts of magical Britain, many arrests were taking place; some of those arrested were random wizards and witches, while others were high-ranking officers and even members of the Wizengamot.

“What is going on here?” A blonde man said as he walked in the streets of Diagon Alley.

He had been approached by Aurors, and he felt entitled to be let off he didn't care about them; he was too powerful to worry about Aurors.

“Lucius Malfoy, you’re under arrest for conspiracy to break the statute of secrecy, being part of a terrorist organization, and committing terrorist acts!” One of the Aurors said with an angry tone.

“This must be a mistake…If you guys speak with Cornelius, he’ll vouch for me and tell you that there’s no way someone like me would do something like that...” Lucius said with an angry tone.

“Drop your wand and put your hands behind your back, Mr. Malfoy,” the Aurors got their wands ready.

“Why you—” Lucius couldn’t continue as he was soon slammed against a wall.

His refusal to cooperate made the Aurors neutralize him until he released his wand, and now that he wasn’t a threat anymore, he was handcuffed and ready to be taken to custody.

“The minister has decreed a state of emergency. We are allowed to capture suspected criminals in any way. The other suspects from the attack at the Quidditch World Cup confirmed your participation. Let's go!” One of the Aurors told a very beaten-up Malfoy.

Meanwhile, back at Hogwarts, Dumbledore clarified his voice; it was time for a final announcement.

“Many of you are wondering why this year has been filled with irregularities, and now I’m going to present to you the reason why the world has been in complete chaos this year. Be ready because you’re about to see something shocking…” Dumbledore suddenly presented a cradle to the students and the press.

Everyone gasped. What Dumbledore showed them was disgusting and horrible; many of them had questions about what the thing in the cradle was. The show was about to get interesting.
