Making Plans

After crying and then finally composing herself, she Cassiopia said-" Sorry for crying all over you. I don’t understand what came over me. I have not cried since the final battle at Hogwarts.”

“Well..... You should have. Crying helps.”  Said Augusta, coming forward. “ I don’t know why I didn’t come forward and adopt you. Afterall you were my grandson’s godsister, but I apologize for not doing so.”

“No problem Dowager Longbottom. What’s done is done. Now lets change what we can.”

Neville came forward and hugged his father. “In my last life I could never hug you as you would have seen. I would also like to meet my mother.”

The Lestranges and Barty looked at each other and then at Neville. They came forward and said-" Heir Longbottom,  we know we have not done anything until know but would still like to apologize for what our counterparts did. No one deserves to live without their parents.”

“It’s alright. We have already come to terms with what had happened. Afterall they were your enemies. So you had all the rights to do so. Anyways let’s not waste time. We do not know will we have to return back to our time. So lets plan about everything.”

Everyone gathered around the dining table.

Cassiopia took charge.
“First things first. With the Dark Lord gone Dumbledore will become more powerful. We have to see that it does not grow much. If I could, I could have saved the Dark Lord and the Black Potters, but Lord Death had specifically told us not to meddle too much. Dumbledore will proclaim that the Dark Lord has been vanquished and that Lilith Potter is the ‘Girl who Lived’ . He has already left her at her Petunia's house. Neville saw that. What we will do is that we will bring Cassiopia Black Potter here and leave Lilith Potter there.”

Everyone looked at her as if she had grown a new head.

“Umm don’t you think that two people cannot be present at same places at same time.” Asked Barty.

I smirked and said-" Nothing is impossible if you know magic.”
I waved my hand and some clay and water got summoned.
I again waved my hand and the clay and water became a figure recognized by all, Lilith Potter.

“As soon as one drop of blood of the child is added, it take her form. Then we can add Dumbledore’s magical signature so that when the magical world discovers that the saviour has been abused, we can demand a complete test. No one will be able to tell the difference. This golem will be your ticket to removing Dumbledore.” I explained.

“How will you add Dumbledore’s magical signature?”
“What is ticket?”
Both Severus and Barty asked at the same time. Everyone looked at Barty incredulously, for he was the one who asked the second question.

“I have to say that I expected this question from Sirius. But well you grandmother was a Black so nothing can be said.” Said Hermione.
“Hey, I resent that.” Said both Sirius and Bellatrix together.
“ You are a Black Hermione.” Said both Draco and I together.
“You are a Black? How come?” Asked Bellatrix.
“I am the daughter of a squib Orion Black, who is the son of two squibs Marius Black and Adelaide Malfoy Black, and Marlene McKinnon.” Said Hermione. “So I am a Black, Malfoy, McKinnon and Lestrange by birth and a Malfoy by marriage.”

“Ok, enough chit chatting. Barty, ticket is a muggle term. I simply meant that you will be able to harm Dumbledore using that. Now, Severus. In the future, Hermione and me invented a device which could record anyone’s magical signature. The signature gets destroyed after one use and is feasible for three days. In order to make our golem convincing, we will have to add James's, Lily's and Lord Father’s magical signature to it and then the spells performed by Dumbledore will also be added using those. For the Potter Black’s signature, we already have recorded for the other two today and Lord Father can give his any time before tomorrow.” I said
“Why tomorrow? You said the signature will be feasible for two days.” Asked Rodolphus. “Yes, but we want Sirius Black to be arrested and Regulus Black to be come back" said Luna.
“How can that happen? He is dead. And why do you want me in prison?”
“Let me explain the complete plan. Cassiopia Black will be Regulus and Severus's daughter. Sirius wants his and his brother’s daughters to be as close to siblings as possible. So Cassiopia has been blood adopted by Sirius, Lily and James and Lilith has been blood adopted by Regulus and Severus. So, when Lilith Potter dies, her seats and houses will go to Cassiopia. Regulus and Severus will be Lilith’s legal magical guardian. So they will try to convince Dumble to give up her location. But he will not do so. Also, her seats will be used by Regulus as her blood father. When Lilith dies, you can put the blame where it lies, Dumbledore. I want Sirius to die because Sirius Black would not disagree with him. I know that Regulus is dead, but Dumbledore is not sure. So become Regulus and stay away from manipulation. And before people ask how, Blacks have a ritual and also the blood of all the Blacks are kept in the family vault. Lilith golem will live with the Dursleys and die just before Hogwarts start. Cassiopia inherits all because of closest blood relation. Everything done.” I explained.

“The plan is good. But I don’t want Sirius's name to be dragged through mud forever. Also what changes do we need to bring?” asked Remus
“After Sirius Black dies in azkaban due to poison given by someone  close to Dumbledore. Peter Pettigrew makes an appearance. He will confess the truth about selling the Potters to the Dark Lord.” Said George.

“Why will Sirius be poisoned?” asked Lucius.

“Because Regulus tells everyone that Sirius Black was infact bonded with the Potters and was Lilith's father. So he could not have betrayed them. Dumbledore will oanic because he cannot let Sirius get freed as he will claim back his daughter who is Dumbledore’s weapon. He will not let the Longbottoms get her. He had given the secret to Pettigrew who gave it Bellatrix, so that she could go to them. He will under every condition keep Lilith at Petunia’s. So after her death Longbottoms join the Blacks in vengeance.” Said Draco.

“Lord Father, you know that the Dark Lord is my soulmate?” I asked. “Yes, child. And even if I would have been against him, I would never have stopped you from bonding with him. Soulmates are blessings of magic. I am blessed to have soulmates, even if two of them are dead.” Said Sirius.

“Someone still left?” asked Rabastan.
At this Sirius looked at Severus but did  not say anything. But Severus saw his looks and so did the others. “Severus is your other soulmate?” asked Barty gobsmacked. Others were not very different.
